‘Today Was Not Our Best Game’: Ten Hag Gives Honest Thoughts On Bournemouth Win

Erik ten Hag was not totally happy with Man United’s performance in their 3-0 win over Bournemouth.

He said after the game: “I am happy with 3-0, that is obvious and quite clear but today was not our best game.

‘We didn't play smart as a team and sometimes we were lucky. We scored great goals and should have scored more.

“We could have conceded too but great saves from David de Gea, I am not happy with that. It is something we have to avoid.

"There were big spaces at 2-0 up, sometimes we have to keep the ball and recognise when to go for goal. That is the next step. It is always good to win 3-0. It was a great performance for the crowd, with scoring opportunities for both goals. To win 3-0 is always good.

"We have to go from game-to-game. The next game is a cup one, but we want to win every game. That has to be the approach. We don't want to look any further, focus on that, it will be a tough game. We need every energy in the preparation and when we kick off on Friday night."

Ten Hag is being quite blunt with his reaction, but one can’t really debate him on it.

United’s performance wasn’t their best, as they were put under pressure at times by Bournemouth. But they took their chances well to get a big win that helps them move on same points as third-place Newcastle United in the Premier League table.
