Ten Hag Reveals What He Told Rashford And Antony In The Dressing Room Before Nottingham Game

Ten Hag told Prime Video: “It’s what I said in the dressing room, we have to score more goals. We created so many chances and it takes us until just before the end to score the third goal. We need to finish this game in an earlier moment.

“Just after half-time we had two really good chances to finish the game. Life would be more easy. There are many games to come, [if you get a third goal then] you can then save energy and it is better for everyone, but also for the progress of the team, we need to be more clinical.

“We have players who can score. You can see Martial and Rashford are goalscorers; Bruno Fernandes scores goals. We have a lot of players who can score, but we have to be ruthless.”
