Man Utd ace Hojlund reveals Ten Hag tactical demands

Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund has confirmed Erik ten Hag allows his players to interchange positions.

The Red Devils have improved in their attacking play in recent weeks, especially with Hojlund finding form before his current injury.

While the Denmark striker is unlikely to play at the weekend against Everton, he is expected to be fit to take on Liverpool in the FA Cup next weekend.

Speaking to club media about his run of scoring seven goals in six league games, Hojlund said: "I have to give credit to my teammates, they are the reason why I have performed this month. They have helped me, but from a personal point of view, I've done well, so I'm very happy and grateful.

"I think I always like to say I have confidence before going into the games. Of course, you have a little bit of momentum when you've scored and you feel in a good flow, you just want the next game to come. I don't really care how they go in, I just want to get on the scoresheet."

He then added: "It's growing with everybody really. I think also in training, we're starting to understand each other and the patterns. We also have the freedom to change positions during the game as well.

"I think our strengths suit each other quite well, so I'm grateful to them and the rest of my teammates. I just want to keep on improving and try to win something."
