Erik Ten Hag speaks
When asked about the incident, Ten Hag did his best to make sure it didn’t overshadow his team’s impressive result.
“I don’t pay attention today, we deal with that tomorrow. I want to get focus on this team, it was a magnificent performance from all 11 players, » Ten Hag said.
The Dutchman continued, “I have to correct myself, it was a performance with the subs who came on. A squad performance.”
“This is the first time we dominated the opponent from beginning until the end. We are starting to play pro-active football, when we lose the ball, when we have the ball, I’m liking what I see, » Ten Hag offered his thoughts on the game.
The United boss continued, « First you get organisation in and out of possession, then you need intensity and that’s what we did today. »
« Today, you see that we developed. We are growing in the season and getting more productive in and out of possession, » Ten Hag concluded.
