Manchester united manager erik ten hag is confident that the club will beat liverpool on sunday, as the club returns to the scene of a record-breaking loss last season.
In the same game in march, ten hag’s squad was defeated 7-0, the club’s joint-heaviest competitive loss of all time and the club’s biggest ever victory in meetings between the two north west rivals, with the latter confirming the club’s exit from europe.
Despite all of these disappointments, ten hag is confident that his squad will beat the table-topping merseysiders this weekend. “when you go to anfield, i think everyone is very motivated,” he said. It’s a great place to visit. We all know it will be difficult, but i think every top footballer will thrive in this challenge,” the dutchman said at his pre-match press conference. “we remember it (the 7-0 loss), but we also have to learn from it, and on sunday we will show we have done that there is no regrets.
I am here to win. I need to make the team run better. We are impartial. I have to work with the squad to make sure they can compete for long periods at a high level.
“we will put out a team that can tackle this challenge,” he said. I am confident that i will have a team that can win there,” ten hag reported. harry maguire will not be available for the match, but luke shaw and marcus rashford could return. “harry isn’t available for the upcoming games, but we don’t think he’ll be out for long. “we think we have luke shaw for sunday,” he said. Marcus rashford is also back.
