Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag continues to blame the injury crisis that has plagued the squad for their struggles this season. This time, he claims no team can survive with the number of key players they have sidelined.
The Red Devils suffered a defeat for the ninth time this season when they fell 2-1 to Nottingham Forest at City Ground, but Ten Hag believes their fortunes will change when the injured players return.
"We know that. We have to make our performances consistent and have to do better,” he started, per the BBC.

“A game is 90 minutes and we have to invest from the first minute on. We are hopeful that many players will be back in the new year and they will strengthen the team and the squad.
"We know the reasons why it is not working. No team can deal with so many issues and injuries we have had. We should still have done better and we have depth in the squad. When you have so many injuries, the depth is not enough."
Speaking specifically on their performance in the defeat to the Tricky Trees, he said, "First half performance was OK. We invested to do less in the final third. I think we should have created more.”
“The second half we had moments when we conceded goals. Then we come back in the game and I think the game was ours and we went for 2-1 and then we conceded. We had our moments but it was not good enough to win here."
Meanwhile, Barcelona are reportedly setting its sights on Manchester United loanee Mason Greenwood following his stellar performances at Getafe. The young forward's recent form in La Liga has drawn significant attention from the Catalan giants.
