Every word from part one of Erik ten Hag pre Nottingham Forest second leg press conference

When you see what the likes of Chelsea are doing in this window, how does that impact the balance in the Premier League, spending so much money at this stage of the season?
“I can’t talk for other clubs, I’m talking for our club. We have a strategy and so we keep that strategy where we want to go. We want to restore Manchester United where they belong. We are in a good direction, also it has to match our financial frames, so we started in the season, and we keep consistent to that plan and strategy. I think we’re developing as a club, we’re developing as a squad in the way of play and I think you can see also the results in the process, we make the right progress. So, we have to keep that process going and keep improving every day.”

Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been in lovely form recently, we’ve seen him playing higher up the pitch and more inverted. How impressed have you been with his performance and is that more of what you’re expecting from the full-backs? Lastly, in terms of the last game, we saw Wout Weghorst come in, are you expecting to play more direct into him? We saw Facundo play an excellent cross into him, are we expecting to see that next phase of our football?
“Yes, definitely. Aaron, he was so often ill or injured at the start of the season, so he wasn’t in the right spirit to contribute, a lot of drop-outs. Then in the restart, he was available, and he got used to our way of play, what we introduced, and I think he made a good development, a good progress. I think you see him growing game by game and I’m happy. What I think was quite well in the last games was the connection between Aaron and Antony was much better. Then you see much more difficulties for the opponent. Then we have to work on that we have even more bodies there, occupation around them so they have more opportunities to play. To Wout, I think Wout is integrating really well. He is just doing what I expected him to do, routine has to come, but the more you play together, the more it will come. So, I expect even better performances from him.”
