deserve to be criticised for their lack of goals as their
opponents only defend.
Manchester United midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin believes
Manchester United's struggles in front of goal boil down to the
spoiling tactics that opposing teams employ when facing Louis
van Gaal's men.
United have been out-scored by all of their top-five rivals and
Van Gaal's style of play has drawn criticism, with some
claiming it to be dull.
However, Schneiderlin does not agree that United have been
boring and pointed at other opponents' defensive
approach instead.
"Every team we come up against is putting 10 people behind the
ball and defending for their lives," Schneiderlin told the official
United website.
"Sometimes it's difficult to create and find space but, of course,
we should create more chances and do more.
"I know there is criticism but we let people do their talking. Our
job is to deliver by winning games. I've seen teams win the
Premier League with good, solid defences and not conceding
goals. Football is like that sometimes.
"But, of course, we need to work on our formation to try to
score goals and win games."
United will be looking to return to winning ways on Saturday
when they host West Ham after back-to-back draws against
PSV and Leicester City.
