The Red Devils claimed a crucial win as they further cemented their top-four spot.
Erik ten Hag was not happy with Manchester United’s defensive display in their 3-0 win over Bournemouth.
The Red Devils marched past their opponents, with Casemiro, Luke Shaw, and Marcus Rashford finding the back of the net. Man Utd’s fourth consecutive win increased their lead over fifth-placed Tottenham to five points.
But that wasn’t enough to convince Ten Hag to overlook his side’s defensive inconsistencies.
Speaking to MEN, David De Gea said: “He was happy with the clean sheet but at the same time he was a bit angry.
“Because we conceded too many chances and we were too open at the end of the game, so he was a bit angry.
“He [Ten Hag] is doing well. I say before, he puts every player in the same direction and we feel like a proper team. Everyone wants to win, everyone wants to play for this club and that’s massive.
“He brought a great spirit to the team, we are playing really well and this is the way we have to show and keep the momentum as well.”
Man Utd went level on points with Newcastle, who stay third on goal difference. The Red Devils will prepare to take on Everton in the FA Cup on Friday before meeting Charlton in the EFL Cup four days later.
