Antonio Conte’s comments on Scott McTominay after the midfielder’s impressive start in Italy are unlikely to cheer up Erik ten Hag.
Antonio Conte 's comments on Scott McTominay will do little to lift Erik ten Hag's mood at Manchester United after the Scot continued his flying start to life in Italy. 'McTominay is a player who has the goal in his blood, he is very good at fitting in,' began the Napoli boss. The Neapolitans' impressive start to the new season has seen them climb to the top of the standings after just six games following their latest victory.

He is used to Lisbon,' began Conte. 'He was excellent there for two years, but the Premier League is another thing. In Manchester, it was 10 degrees, it's been raining for 10 days, in Lisbon it's 25.'The truth is that Ten Hag doesn't like British players, he doesn't buy any British players. Last year he bought Rasmus Hojlund, this season Joshua Zirkzee, who has a physicality that works well in Italy. 'Tottenham instead bought Dominic Solanke, who is a good player, nothing sensational but a good player. I'm sorry to see Ten Hag in great difficulty, but he hasn't learned anything from these two years.
