Erik ten Hag was clearly pleased with the coach after beating Arsenal 3-1. The Manchester United manager praised the team’s behavior.
“I think the first 10 minutes were the best of the season, but after the missed goal we didn’t have a good time. Despite this, we had a good team spirit and we knew how to fight. Arsenal created chances, but we scored goals and played well on the counterattack. I never had the feeling that the opponent could break us, but I admit that we could control the game better, ”he explained.
And when asked about the team’s growth – a fourth win in a row after two losses at the start of the season), Ten Hag highlighted the evolution by leaving a message for the athletes.
“This is all a process where we need to raise the bar every day. This is my demand to all those who are part of the squad. We have players who have already won trophies and need to level up. This is the only way we can get the best out of everyone.”
Finally, praise to Antony, a recent signing from Ajax, who made his debut in the starting XI and scored one goal.
“We needed a player on the right wing, we have Jadon Sancho and Rashford who can play there, but they prefer to play on the left. He was ok, but I think he can still play better. He scored a good goal, but this is the result of good teamwork, ”he shot.
