Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag remains optimistic about the future despite a 2-1 home defeat to Fulham marking their 10th loss in the Premier League this season. Ten Hag emphasized the need for injured players to return and highlighted promising young talents like Alejandro Garnacho, Kobbie Mainoo and Omari Forson.

He also pointed to the upcoming transfer window for squad strengthening. Ten Hag believes the team is heading in the right direction once everyone is available. The defeat adds pressure ahead of their FA Cup tie against Nottingham Forest and an upcoming league match against Manchester City.

Despite co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s ambitious statements earlier in the week, United’s current ambitions seem more modest and the “bigger picture” remains uncertain for Ten Hag.
