Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, firmly dismissed claims that his team has been in crisis despite the negative headlines and a series of poor results they have faced this season. Following their 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United, Ten Hag dropped Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial from the starting lineup for their match against Chelsea. However, this decision proved to be fruitful as Scott McTominay’s brace secured a 2-1 victory for United at Old Trafford.

Ten Hag expressed his unwavering belief in the team’s journey and the need to remain calm amidst the criticism surrounding them. He stated, “We know what we have to build and we don’t get distracted by criticism around us. I don’t care about the noise. When we stick together, have the right attitude, we have the performances to collect points.” It is clear that Ten Hag wants the team to focus on their own development and not let external opinions affect their progress.

Against Chelsea, Manchester United displayed their dominance on the pitch with a staggering 28 shots, nine of which were on target. Mauricio Pochettino’s team struggled to match United’s intensity as they controlled the game with possession. Cole Palmer’s goal for Chelsea in the 44th minute may have temporarily dampened their spirits, but McTominay’s second-half header secured the win for United. Ten Hag admitted that his team could have made life easier for themselves by capitalizing on their early chances, but he was pleased with the number of opportunities they created.

With this victory, Manchester United now closes the gap to three points behind reigning champions Manchester City, who suffered a 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa. The upcoming match against Bournemouth at Old Trafford provides United with another opportunity to gather more points and continue their journey towards success. It is clear that Ten Hag demands improvement from his team, consistently striving for better results and a stronger performance.

Despite the negative press and recent setbacks, Manchester United and their manager, Erik ten Hag, maintain a strong belief in their process and remain undeterred by criticisms. Their dominant performance against Chelsea exemplified their ability to control the game and create numerous scoring opportunities. As they continue their journey towards success, it is evident that Ten Hag will not allow external opinions to affect their progress. With the upcoming match against Bournemouth, Manchester United has an opportunity to further solidify their position and showcase their determination to achieve their goals.
