Man United ground out another Premier League win during their encounter against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday
When it comes to the art of winning ugly, it is a trait that Manchester United seem to have mastered so far this season.
They failed to dictate proceedings in the first half against a team that had been walloped 8-0 by Newcastle United in their previous home game. After the interval, however, United were much improved, enjoying more of the ball and putting the Blades under sustained periods of pressure. They spent a lavish amount of money in the summer, strengthening several key areas within the squad, but they are still yet to come up with a polished 90-minute performance this term. As a caveat, however, it is important to be mindful of the amount of injuries they have had to contend with.
"It has to be a turning point and also a restart," said Ten Hag, speaking after the dramatic win over Brentford prior to the international break. "The spirit is good. The team is together. We have shown that. These games give fuel to the dressing room."
