Erik Ten hag, after the slap received against Liverpool: ‘We were very undisciplined in the exercise of our profession’

Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag was visibly lost, without explanation, after the real sinking of his team (7-0) against Liverpool. A historic defeat which risks leaving traces on the side of Manchester.

“I have no explanation. I’ll have to find one” first loose the Dutchman at the microphone of Sky Sports. “In the first half, we were more in control, we even had perhaps the best chances, but we made a mistake. And in the second half, at the start, we offered two goals where we were very bad in defensive transition and from there it all fell apart.”

“There was no more team, we no longer respected the planned tactics, there were only eleven individuals left (on the field). It was very bad” chains the coach of the Red Devils. “As professionals, you always have to stick together and fight for each other and that’s what we didn’t do. We were very undisciplined in the exercise of our profession (…) It can happen that we make bad decisions in the transitions, but we did not follow the actions, we did not fall back and for me, it is professional misconduct (…) It is unacceptable , but it’s also just a game and we’re going to bounce back“.
