Real Sociedad vs United: Erik ten Hag’s perseverance strikes a chord with Casemiro. According to him at the news conference on Wednesday, the Manchester United midfielder has seen that Ten Hag has an ‘obsession’ with winning games. Casemiro and his coach discussed the upcoming Europa League match with Real Sociedad in it.
The Brazilian said of his trainer, “I am most astonished by his fixation with winning, even though I am 30 years old and have been around for a while. I believe he has a number of advantages. We are aware that we are progressing and developing together. His obsession is to uplift us to the last millimetre and teach the players. I’ve only observed that winning-obsession in a very small percentage of trainers.”

Ten Hag himself also discussed the summer signing’s significance for Manchester United. At the beginning of the season, Casemiro had to compete for a starting position; nevertheless, he has already been successful. He scored a late goal against Chelsea a week and a half ago to give The Red Devils a point (1-1). Every game, you can observe him develop. Although we are pleased with the growth of our entire team, we must carry on with this process, Ten Hag stated. “We must improve; we are not satisfied.”
On Thursday, Manchester United will go to Real Sociedad in the Europa League with the goal of winning the group. “Of sure, that is significant.” Ten Hag said, “We know we have to win by two goals.” Due to Manchester United’s 0-1 loss to the Spanish side in front of their own fans, they are starting from that position. “We are aware of the challenges, but we have a strategy to win by at least two goals. We’ll do every effort to make it happen,” he continued.
Ten Hag, who is forced to play without Sancho and Antony, does not anticipate Sociedad to play defensively in order to defend first place. “I believe their coach enjoys poetic football. They enjoy playing football, so I believe they will continue doing so. We will react if they start playing in a different manner,” the United manager concluded.
