Alan Shearer on Marcus Rashford: “I don't like his body language. As an individual he has to take responsibility for his actions. He has to do better, hold the ball up, stop waving his arms around. He's telling the fans that it's not his fault he lost the ball.” #MUFC

HT: Nottingham Forest 0-0 Manchester United. Thoughts? 👇

Ten Hag: "They [Fernandes and Varane] fought to be in the team, which is good. They are highly motivated to give the best performances, help the team and contribute. They are two winners and they want to win. This is a big occasion for this season to win this trophy." [MUTV]

Ten Hag: "There will always, in a process, be setbacks, but it’s how you can make it better. You have to start by getting that right on the training pitch."

Ten Hag: "Last year, we were unbeatable at Old Trafford, and opponents came with that idea and feeling that you can’t get nothing here. That is how it should be." [BBC]

Ten Hag: "We have to be aware that we can’t go into a game giving 90-95%. You have to give everything possible on the pitch and show determination and intimidation in our approach to the opponent. We have to show willingness and belief to win games." [BBC]

Ten Hag: "From January on, we were in a positive trend, and we played very good games and progressed. We weren’t perfect still, but you saw the potential and we were winning games. Now it’s broken by defeat, so we have to change this."

Ten Hag: "Of course, we are not happy when we are sixth in the league. We are not happy as #mufc so we have to catch up." [BBC]
