Erik ten Hag claims Man Utd are still behind
Erik ten Hag warns that Man Utd still has work to do before they can catch up with premier league top sides.
Manchester United beat high-flying Arsenal on Sunday by 3 goals to 1 as goals from Rashford and Anthony were enough for Man Utd to emerge victorious on the day.
“We have to get better if you want to win trophies in the end,” Ten Hag said.
“I understand fans that they dream and, of course, the standards of Man United has to be high, but we are all in the start of a process. We are still far away.
“We have to get doing things much better than we do now. And that is an investment. We have to go that way together every day, bringing that high standard to [the training ground at] Carrington.
“The players know we have to get better if you want to win trophies in the end. What we have to do is win every game.”
Erik ten Hag feels his side is only getting stronger as they picked another premier league victory.
“We have to invest in training and in meetings in order to get that in games,” the Dutchman said. “We are just at the start of a process.
“Casemiro has only just arrived; Antony has just got here; Cristiano Ronaldo missed pre-season, so we have to get that practice in.
“Once we do that we’ll be able to control games better. In the process we will dictate games. There’s a long way to go but we are going in the right direction.”
“From day one we have set high standards and values,” Ten Hag added of his side’s recent performances. “We work hard to create a winning culture.
“I’m not now thinking we are at that point, but we are on our way, heading in a good direction and have to keep this going.
“We’ll continue pushing the attitude and mentality by setting high standards every day. Good is not good enough – we have to do better and I think there’s room for improvement.”
