JAKARTA - Manchester United (MU) coach Erik ten Hag emphasized that his team must win when they travel against Fulham in the Premier League at Craven Cottage, today at 19.30 WIB.

This was said by the Dutch coach because he did not want his team to swallow three defeats or fail to win three times in a row after losing the previous two matches to the same score, 0-3 against Manchester City in the Premier League and Newcastle United in the Premier League Cup.

"We have to win and I don't want to find excuses if we don't win. We have to be more pragmatic but still have to win. That's the demand and I won't leave it, "said Ten Hag, launching from the club's official website reported by ANTARA, Saturday, November 4.

Ten Hag explained that the determination to get the three points did not only come from him as a coach, but also from his players.

They are positive. They want to fix it. We know the standards here and we have to meet those standards every day. We have experienced two major setbacks and we will fight them. This dressing room is strong, the staff is strong, and the manager is strong, to straighten things out," Ten Hag said.

Ten Hag also dismissed fan criticism that his players after the defeat against Newcastle seemed to have no character.

According to him, if the character is not in his team, then the Red Devils will not be able to make an extraordinary comeback with a score of 2-1 when they beat Brentford after previously trailing one goal until the 90+2 minute.

"Remember the fight we showed against Brentford and the comeback. If there is no enthusiasm in the dressing room or no character in the dressing room, you can't do this," said the former Ajax Amsterdam coach.

Apart from not being able to be strengthened by Casemiro, who is a new list of injured players, United also has the potential to be unable to lower centre-back Victor Lindelof, who is doubtful of appearing due to illness.

"Only Victor Lindelof. From the disease. We have to see if he's ready for tomorrow (Saturday)," he concluded.
