Ten Hag: "From the start we said we’d plan with him [Ronaldo] so that is your vision, it’s not my vision. I think we are happy with him, he’s happy to be here and we want to make this season a success together."

When Ajax technical director Gerry Hamstra didn’t want to sell Lisandro Martínez, Martínez told him ‘you are a f***ing nobody’ and ‘you are only here because Marc Overmars had to go’. A couple days later he moved to #mufc [@MikeVerweij via @TheEuropeanLad]

Ten Hag on Leicester: “I've seen a couple of games and we knew from the last seasons how good they are and I think you can see that in the games they've played to now. Their identity is really good to see, they play really football, we have to be really good to get a result.”

Ten Hag on #mufc’s last two games: “I see it as a start, we have a good base. This is the minimum of what we have to bring. I was happy to see the turn and we have to keep that, to keep the spirit and winning mentality because you need it if you want to have a successful season.”

Ten Hag on Cristiano Ronaldo: “It is clear. We need quality players. You need more to cover all the games to keep the consistency going.”

Ten Hag: “I hope [Antony is available for the weekend]. It has be done then, because the window is closed.”

Ten Hag on Antony: "There is an agreement between the clubs but the paperwork is not done, so I cannot go deep. We still need to strengthen the offensive department because we have many games to cover."

Ten Hag: "Victor Lindelöf is training with the team. We will see today how far he is because he was out for three weeks. Anthony Martial is not available."

ten Hag confirms that Aaron Wan Bissaka and Cristiano Ronaldo is set to stay: "Aaron will stay in. This squad we will go from September to minimum January. We need quality players. You need more to cover all the games and keep the consistency going, that is what we strive for.”

(final fdj push maybe? we can pray)

Ten Hag: "I think for this window [Antony and Martin Dúbravka] would be the end, but when there is great opportunity you always have to be alert at this top club."

Full agreement between Everton and Manchester United for James Garner as bid has been accepted — around £15/20m, it will be clear later today. 🚨🔵 #EFC Discussions ongoing on personal terms, Garner has to decide as there are other clubs in the race — EFC are confident.
