#4 Manchester United are toothless without Zlatan Ibrahimovic
In his first ever season in English football, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been the focal point of everything good at Manchester United. Seventeen league goals in 28 appearances is nothing short of phenomenal for a 35-year old and the Swedish striker has made it look easy. However, now that the Swede is out for the rest of the season, United’s attack is no longer feared.
A half-fit Marcus Rashford and an out-of-form Anthony Martial won’t do much to destabilise the strong Arsenal back three. With limited goal-scoring threats, it’s clear that Mourinho will focus on employing a 4-6-0 formation that looks to completely disrupt Arsenal’s possession game.
Regardless of the tactic, with no threats in attack, it’ll only be a matter of time before Arsenal break down the resistance. And when they do, the floodgates will open.
