We have more very good penalty takers – podcast #349

The MUFC Global Podcast

Manchester United 2 v Everton 0. Ten Hag : “I was very pleased with the pressing and also the defending of the box. The only thing that could be better is keeping more of the ball, be more calm on the ball, playing more give-and-gos.
“When you have a high press, you can’t go all the time with long balls because you stretch the pitch and we don’t actually want that. But all over, a good performance and good result.
“It was a team performance but especially our back four and our goalkeeper in the back and Casemiro in the front. They have done very well
“The way we defended set-plays was very good, really well organised and focused and everyone did their job. From the second phase, they had some opportunities, but overall, I think we did quite well.”
“They decided on the pitch together. But we have more very good penalty takers in our squad, Bruno is one, Rashy is one, Casemiro and Christian Eriksen as well, plus others.
“That’s very good when you have that in your squad. When you get at such short notice, two different penalty takers makes it harder for the opposition and the goalkeeper.”
Ten Hag on Garnacho : “It’s about him and if he can keep the focus. If he puts the right effort in during a game and during the week, because sometimes for young players it’s difficult because they are inexperienced.
“As a coaching staff, we have a job to do, but he is able to keep this focus and attitude and he will improve from game to game and that’s what we see. We are very pleased with his performance.
“With young players, you always have to tell them. In the week, you win your game and there we have to work very well in training session and meetings, we have to be spot on to get the performance at the weekend.
“I love to work with him, just like the other players in the squad. He is a player who needs a challenge, likes a challenge, he’s very brave and confident and our job is to push him to higher levels.
“But he is doing this. He has a high potential and now we have to get the potential out. You have to work day by day and when you are young, you don’t know what it is to play in a high competitive leave, to perform every third day.
“You need that experience and you have to perform in every training session to get better because there are so many areas for them to improve.”
