Ten Hag praises 'consistent' Man Utd side after late FA Cup win

22:25 , Jonathan Gorrie

Erik ten Hag praised his “consistent” Manchester United after they beat Nottingham Forest to edge into the FA Cup quarter-finals on Tuesday night.

Casemiro’s late header saw United progress into the final eight and teed up a mouth-watering clash at home to rivals Liverpool next month.

Ten Hag’s side wasted a number of good opportunities in the first half but it proved to be a tight game at the City Ground, decided only by the Brazilian’s header in the dying embers.

Still, the Dutchman was pleased to see his team recover from their stoppage-time loss at home to Fulham and was keen to point out United have lost only once since the turn of the year.

Erik ten Hag delivers verdict on Antony future amid rumours of Manchester United summer exit

Erik ten Hag has insisted Antony will find his “unstoppable” best form at Manchester United.

The Brazilian has failed to consistently impress at Old Trafford since making an £86million move from Ajax in the summer of 2022.

In 26 appearances in all competitions for United this season, Antony has scored just one goal, against League Two side Newport in the FA Cup. He has not registered a single assist.

Casemiro is available for the visitors, after he was assessed and found to have not suffered concussion against Forest, but options to refresh the defence are light, amid the absence of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia.
