Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag has admitted his team have to improve quickly, despite a 1-0 win over Luton Town on Saturday.
Victor Lindelof’s effort in the second half proved to be the winner at Old Trafford.
However, Ten Hag wants United to decide games early and called on Rasmus Hojlund to begin to find his feet in the Premier League.
Ten Hag, speaking to BBC Match of the Day, said: “It is a good day. We needed the win and we got it but we could make life more easy by scoring early on and getting a second. We created the chances but we didn’t score apart from one. I am happy with that and I am happy with the clean sheet. We had many chances before half time and you should net one of them. After half time, get the second and then the game is gone. Now you keep them alive and they can get an equaliser from balls dropping in the wrong place.
“Rasmus Hojlund has scored five times in the Champions League. He has the confidence and the goals will come.
“It would be better for composure, for the calmness, for the manager, the coaches and the team if we score early on, but if you don’t you have to keep going. I have to compliment the team that they kept going, kept organised and didn’t give anything away.
“We have three away games – all big games – and we have to get ready for that. Hopefully the players stay fit in their international duties. We get ready for that. A lot of work to do.”
