Aaron Wan-Bissaka arguably seals his fate as a Manchester United player after nightmare vs Coventry City | OneFootball

A win for Manchester United has rarely felt this deflated, especially in a cup semi-final.

That is exactly what it was as United collapsed from a 3-0 lead to go to penalties, eventually winning 4-2 to reach the FA Cup final.

Championship side Coventry City laid bare United’s limitations once again and while the usual suspects were all bad and continued their poor form, this game will probably be the one which is looked back on as the game which sealed a player’s fate.

Erik ten Hag might well have sealed his managerial fate but Aaron Wan-Bissaka now looks extremely likely to join him.

Not helped by Ten Hag deploying him on the left, he had a nightmare display against second-division opponents.

The fact that he conceded a foolish penalty was the icing on the proverbial cake for a performance that left a lot to be desired.

He lost possession 15 times, a scary number for a player in defence as losing the ball there pretty much means a free attack for the opposition.

Thanks to Ten Hag putting him at left-back, Wan-Bissaka became the black hole in attack as well.

Due to his stronger right foot, he took the ball and shifted to his right, immediately halting the momentum of attacks.

His presence on the overlap became useless as the opposition knew they could stand off him with no consequences as he wouldn’t cross it first-time.

He won only four out of his seven ground duels as especially in the second half, it looked like Coventry had an extra man on the pitch.

Add to that him not being comfortable playing out from the back, he stuck out like a sore thumb on the odd occasion United had the courage to play the ball.

Overall, it was a display that showed that United have settled for mediocrity, and they can’t even use that right.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka might have just sealed his fate as a United player after that if INEOS are serious about resetting the culture at Old Trafford.
