United will look to secure a more comfortable spot when they take on Real Sociedad on their last game as only a win will see them avoiding a play-off with one of the UCL knocked out teams.
With every thoughts now focused on their weekend game, the main discussions haven’t failed to keep Antony Santos’ spin among it’s ranks after pundits branded it as ’embarrasing’
Speaking on the Brazilian’s skill, ten Hag said to reporters, “I don’t have a problem with that as long as it’s functional.
“Also from him I demand more – more runs behind, more often in the box, more followers in and more tempo dribbles, especially, and more playing in the pocket.
“So, we demand more dominance in this game and when there is a trick like that, it’s nice.
“As long as it’s functional, if you’re not losing the ball and you’re attracting players, then it’s OK.
“But if it’s a trick because of a trick, then I will correct him.”
