Erik Ten Hag has vow to give his 100 percent in developing Manchester United duo Marcus Rasford and Jadon Sancho as the Dutch makes shocking revelation about the academy graduate.
Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag have vow to work hard in order to improve the performance of his players particularly Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho.
The duo was on the scoresheet at Old Trafford in United’s victory over Liverpool on Monday.
The Dutch manager who is known for developing young talent has claims he will give 100 percent to making them improve.
Speaking with the media ahead of the Southampton game Ten Hag said: “I will give my 100 per cent on that. We have to work hard, I have to work hard with my players, I’m confident they can do it and now they have to get that belief as well and you see when they bring that on the pitch, you can see which impact they can have.
“I was really happy that just they scored the two goals because I hope that will give them the push that they can do the hard work, they are really contributing in defence and pressing but also they contribute in the creativity, creating chances, finishing chances and that is what they are really good at. It’s about when they believe that, they will do it.”
Former Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick said he is always impressed with Rashford in training and said he wished he could transfer that onto the pitch.
Meanwhile, Ten Hag acknowledge the statement and hope the England international can continue with his positive form.
“From the first moment in pre-season, he impressed me, and I knew already before he was a magnificent talent and player, but he shows in every training session that he is really positive, has good energy, [his] pre-season was good, and I hope he will continue like this and be positive.
“With his movements, he will always create chances, the team will create him chances and he has to believe that he and the team will do that and it’s about getting the right finish.”
Rashford played in the central role against Liverpool before switching back to the left-wing position when Anthony Martial came in.
When asked if the player can play every role on the pitch Ten Hag said: “I think he can play every role as you saw on Monday. It was really good to make that sub with Martial and add Rashy to the left because we know his inside runs are really dangerous and you saw it with the second goal.”
Meanwhile, Anthony Martial has been ruled out of the game against Southampton with injury.
