My players are not Robots – Ten Hag speaks on United’s form
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has stated that his players are not robots, even though he admits he is baffled as to why the squad has conceded so many goals this season.
United has the most clean sheets in the Premier League last season than any other club.
However, they have conceded 14 goals in six games in all competitions this season.
Bayern Munich scored four goals in the Champions League on Wednesday, following back-to-back 3-1 losses to Arsenal and Brighton.
“We have shown that we can do it because last year we had the most clean sheets in the Premier League because we defended very good as a team so we have to get back to those standards,” Ten Hag told a news conference on Friday.
“I am pushing the team and demanding from the team at the start of the season, but they are human beings, not robots so why are they not doing it, I try to find out and I try to get and give the solutions and try to motivate the players to do the job.”
