'We lost one time in 2024': Ten Hag fights off criticism of Man United

Speaking to BBC Sport, Erik ten Hag said: "Every win is important. We have fantastic games coming up. This team can do great things.

"But they have to show it every game. I've seen it the last couple of months, but not against Fulham. Still, we lost just one time in 2024.

"We are consistent. It's not easy when you have the whole backline [injured] and have to play players in different positions. I'm very proud of what we did."

Manchester United suffered a disappointing 2–1 defeat against Fulham last week as their Champions League hopes were dented in a major way.

Up next for the Red Devils is a trip to Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday for a game that could decide the 2023/24 title race.
