United duo could be 'made available'

Harry Maguire and Scott McTominay could be "made available" for transfer this summer, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The pair are understood to be among the players United would like to keep going into next season.

But an "important bid" would likely make Man Utd reconsider their future at Old Trafford.

It's always the same situation for both of them. It was the same last summer and it's going to be the same this summer.

If Manchester United receive an important proposal for these two players, they could be made available in the summer transfer window.

Otherwise, they are not desperate for them to leave the club, and so they can absolutely stay.

Ten Hag believes Martial 'did not fancy' playing

Striker Anthony Martial was one player he regularly had to excuse due to injury, but privately, he felt the player simply did not fancy it.

A source close to Ten Hag said: “He would never call out the players publicly.

“But he did feel that the pressure and criticism they got during the season affected a number of them leading to injuries feeling worse than they were.

“The constant stream of negativity got to everyone, bar himself it seemed.”

It is an issue Ten Hag is determined to address, having been confirmed as United’s manager for next season.

The club were searching for a new manager while conducting a review of the season following United’s FA Cup triumph over Manchester City.

They ended up sticking with Ten Hag and want him to sign a new three-year contract.

The manager has yet to commit to that after feeling he was messed around by new part-shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who is now in charge of football operations at the club.

Ten Hag believes Man Utd pressure added to injury list

Erik ten Hag believes the pressure of playing for Manchester United left some of his stars in the treatment room.

The Red Devils suffered an unprecedented number of injuries asthey finished eighth in the Premier League, their lowest-ever placing.

The Old Trafford boss felt some players simply could not take the scrutiny and criticism that came with wearing the Manchester United shirt as results suffered.

The result was thatany knocks subconsciously felt worse to an individual, who then ruled himself out of a game.

Ten Hag would defend his players during the season as injuries mounted up.

But without revealing what theproblem was, he always said that he knew.

His views had echoes of former boss Ole Solskjaer who on looking back at his tenure felt there were too many 'snowflakes' at the club.

United had an unprecedented 64 cases of injury or sickness to players last season.

Ten Hag was forced to field 30 different back four combinations.

However, while there were 11 players missing for the penultimate away trip of the season to Crystal Palace, only three of those reported injured for the FA Cup Final.
