Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag praises three players after Bournemouth win
Man United defenders were the best performers in the 1-0 win over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
Erik ten Hag believes David de Gea showed he remains a “very good goalkeeper” after Manchester United secured a crucial victory at Bournemouth.
De Gea beat Dominic Solanke, David Brooks and Kieffer Moore to defend United’s 1-0 lead and secure their eighth Premier League away win of the season.
The United goalkeeper has come under heavy criticism in recent weeks after suffering defeats to Sevilla and West Ham, but he picked up the Premier League’s Golden Glove award for most goals conceded.
“Very good too,” said Lindelof’s Ten Hag, “because when you talk about goals conceded, it applies to the whole team: the goalkeeper and the centre-backs are very important in that respect.” “I think they played a very focused game, Victor defended very well in many games in April and May. And with Rapha he does a great job, positioning, training, tackling, very well.
