Sancho Hits Back at Ten Hag’s Critique

Jadon Sancho has fired back at Erik ten Hag’s critique of him, asserting that he’s been unfairly singled out at Manchester United. After Manchester United’s 3-1 Premier League loss to Arsenal at the Emirates on Sunday, Reds manager Ten Hag remarked that the England international was omitted from the lineup due to his training performance.

“Jadon was absent from the team due to his training performance,” Ten Hag stated. “We didn’t include him. At Manchester United, you have to consistently reach a certain level, and we have choices to make in the forward line, so he wasn’t chosen for this match.”

Fernandes Reveals Dressing Room Reaction to Defeat

Bruno Fernandes has acknowledged that Manchester United’s defeat to Arsenal was a bitter pill to swallow, but he also emphasized that the team can draw positives from their performance.

Arsenal entered the match unbeaten in their last five encounters with United at the Emirates, and Marcus Rashford’s spectacular goal in the 27th minute threatened that record. However, just over 30 seconds after that breakthrough, Arsenal responded with an equalizer from Martin Odegaard.
