Crystal Palace will suffer another away day to forget at Manchester United this weekend if Roy Hodgson doesn’t alter his tactics.
The Eagles lost 1-0 at Sheffield United in limp fashion on Sunday, as they remain goalless after two Premier League games this season.
As quoted by the Mirror, Luka Milivojevic has expressed concern about his side’s display at Bramall Lane, fearing more of the same at Old Trafford on Saturday:
We didn’t play good enough, we didn’t create enough. From keeper to striker we were not good enough and that decided it.
In the second half, we didn’t create and we didn’t control. That surprised me and it was a second half to forget and correct, and to prepare for next week (against United) much, much better – because I think it could be worse than this weekend.

The weekend trip to United is sure to be a tough assignment, as is invariably the case at Old Trafford.
Hodgson needs to change things up in terms of his tactics if Palace are to have a chance of getting anything from the game.
Using Wilfried Zaha up front alongside Christian Benteke at Sheffield United didn’t work – playing the Ivorian in his preferred wide role against his former club makes sense.
Equally, Max Meyer should be moved into a central berth, having failed to make an impact out wide on Sunday.
If things stay the same, Milivojevic’s fears may come to fruition.
