“It’s not tactics” – Ten Hag reveals secret to Manchester United’s 2-1 victory over Liverpool

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has revealed the secret to the 2-1 victory over Liverpool was down to the attitude of the players.

Erik ten Hag told Sky Sports: “We can talk about tactical but it is all about attitude. There was communication and a fighting spirit.

“I wanted a different approach and a different attitude and that is what they brought on the pitch. It is only a start. We can play with much more composure and much more danger. Be a team and have a good spirit – and that is what we saw today.

“It is not always about what I said. I said we have to act and not to talk a lot and make sure you are a team and battle and be brave and give each other options.”
