In round 8 of the Premier League, Man United welcomed Brentford at home. Coach Ten Hag and his team had a difficult time when Pinnock scored a goal at the end of the first half. However, M.U quickly came back in the second half to reverse the score to 2-1. The home team's goalscorers were Garnacho and Hojlund.
After the match, coach Ten Hag had special praise for Rashford, who contributed 1 assist. The English striker was deployed on the right wing, but he still played well despite it not being his forte.
Ten Hag was quoted by United In Focus as saying: “I really like the way he plays, it shows what quality he has. There is a lot. We want to see that in every game. A really intense style, then a great cross, with a great fighting spirit. When all the players can bring that, Man United can win trophies.”
Rashford provided an assist for Garnacho, who had eight shots on goal. Ten Hag praised Garnacho, but stressed he needed to be sharper: “He has to be if he wants to become a better player.
I know what he is capable of, that's why I play him so often. He is a threat to the opposition, he can score goals and he has good one-on-one ability. The end product is the goals and the chances he missed in previous games."
