The team managed by Ten Hag is now in sixth place in the Premier League table, being eight points behind Aston Villa, who are in fourth place.
After finishing in last place in their group, United’s ambition of competing in the Champions League turned into a nightmare.
They ended below Bayern Munich, FC Copenhagen, and Galatasaray overall.
In spite of this, United has been gaining some momentum over the past few weeks, as they managed to go seven matches without suffering a loss before they were defeated by Fulham.
At Old Trafford, the Red Devils were defeated by a late goal scored by Alex Iwobi, which allowed Marco Silva’s team to capture a remarkable victory by a score of 2-1.
Throughout the course of this season, one of the most prominent topics of discussion has been the performance of winger Antony, who has recorded only one goal and one assist in a total of 25 games.
When asked about the Brazilian player’s performance before their match against Fulham, Ten Hag confessed that he has not yet demonstrated his full ability.
He stated, “He is required to demonstrate a point, which he will do.” Additionally, he possesses a great deal of potential. In recent times, he has not demonstrated his gift; nonetheless, I am aware of his abilities, and it is about demonstrating his abilities as well as about him.
And, yes, it is likely that he will be given his opportunities, isn’t that right? Nevertheless, I believe that was the plan from the beginning.”
The next thing that Ten Hag said was, “You have competition, and now he needs to show himself on the training pitch, but also others because we have opportunities there.”
It appears that [Amad] Diallo is performing well in the training sessions since he has returned from an injury.
Things are going nicely for Omari Forson.
As a result, we have a number of roles that we can fill. Also, it is not a certain that Marcus Rashford will be required to play the position of center forward.
Next weekend, Manchester United will kick off their return to play with a match against their local rivals, Manchester City, this coming Sunday afternoon.
