Manchester United head coach Eva Olid is addressing a difficult start to the season following two consecutive losses. The team suffered a 2-1 defeat against London City Lionesses last weekend and a 5-0 loss to Chelsea in their most recent home fixture. Olid attributed the team's early struggles to a lack of confidence and slow ball movement under pressure. The manager indicated that implementing a more effective style of play remains a priority during this transition period. Olid expressed a commitment to the challenge despite the current points deficit and the demanding nature of the upcoming schedule. Manchester United will look to secure a result during their next league fixture on Saturday evening against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
