Manchester United scored twice in stoppage time to see off Brentford with Erik ten Hag able to hand out crucial half-time instructions that helped them land three points
Erik ten Hag told his Manchester United players to target Brentford's defenders and continue switching play as he looked to salvage the contest at half-time on Saturday.
United pushed in the second-half with Ten Hag urging his team to keep their opponents running by better utilising the full-backs with Diogo Dalot on the right and Victor Lindelof on the left. The Portuguese star claimed after the win that their manager's tactics helped fatigue their opponents. “We kept fighting and then when Scott came in with the energy and mentality he has, it shows we are a proper team and I am really happy for him. When you win a game like this you get to the dressing room excited and you can look at everybody you could see that they gave everything.”
Ten Hag has called on his players to use Saturday's morale boosting success as a "turning point" having started his second season in charge poorly. “This must be the turning point. This reflects our season so far from the start of a game," he said. "It has to be that you believe and you see the fans believe: they are sticking together.
