Speaking to Sky Sports, Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag was also asked about the substitution of Marcus Rashford — who seemed lucky to avoid two bookings — and the seemingly nasty injury to Harry Maguire just before half-time:
💬 “Yes, that was one of the reasons to take (Rashford) off. If it was another foul, probably he would be sent off. We can’t take another risk.
“(Maguire) didn’t feel well after half-time so I had to take him off.”
And then there was the watching club hierarchy, after a week in which the pressure was once again on the Manchester United manager:
💬 “We always speak. Every week we speak. We are all on board together, on one page, we know what we are working through and it’s a long-term process.
“We have come through two very tough away games. This is a team. We showed the belief and faith we have.”
