Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag hailed his Manchester United side after they ended their losing run in beating Burnley on Saturday.

The Red Devils secured a 1-0 win at Turf Moor thanks to Bruno Fernandes' volley, ending a three-game losing streak following losses to Arsenal, Brighton and Bayern Munich.

It wasn't plain sailing for Ten Hag - who was pictured after the game speaking to director of football John Murtough, but his side moved up to eighth in the league table with the victory, though they are still four points away from the top four.

But it was a win to stop the rot against a home side that were up for the match, and who hit the post through Zeki Amdouni and enjoyed more of the ball and efforts on goal.

Ten Hag points to his side's resilience after the match, with United again missing a number of players through injury, including Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka in defence.
