Ten Hag knows McTominay 'gives his life' for Man United when others cannot say the same, while Iraola is in trouble and Sterling responded to Southgate.
Ten Hag knows McTominay “gives his life” for Man United when others cannot say the same, while Iraola is in trouble and Sterling responded to Southgate.As firmly established in folklore as Fergie Time is, Manchester United had never won a Premier League game in which they were trailing in stoppage-time. They chose the most poignant of days to change that at Old Trafford.
“These games give fuel to the dressing room,” the Dutchman said after the game. “In football, it is eat or get eaten. Too many times in the first half of this season we got eaten by opponents who are more hungry. This can’t be. Every player has to deliver that in every second he is on the pitch.” The latest point the England manager proffered in self-defence was to warn against “recency bias” when picking players, having recalled Ollie Watkins after the Aston Villa striker’s hat-trick against Brighton. Southgate’s critics have used his past comments on choosing squads based on “form” more than “reputation” as a stick with which to unfairly beat him, but this was plain nonsense.
Call it recency bias, form or anything in between: the 28-year-old underlined why his 82nd England cap, won in that World Cup quarter-final defeat to France almost a year ago, will surely not be his last.The wait goes on for Bournemouth to play a single fixture they didn’t lose the corresponding version of last season, but Everton must have been earmarked by the Cherries as a team to pick off for their first win of the campaign.“We knew it was a possibility,” he said of their winless start.
Perhaps the two most important of those – midfielders Alex Scott and Tyler Adams – remain sidelined with no suggestion that they are close to returning from injury. There is sympathy for Iraola in that instance but patience in his process is quickly dissipating. Paul Heckingbottom’s side continue to put up something resembling a fight in most of their games – do try and ignore the Newcastle fans sniggering in the back – but their inherent lack of requisite quality tends to tell in the end.
