Manchester United's head coach Erik ten Hag shared his expectations for the upcoming season.

«We now need to integrate the new players into areas where we believe they can enhance the team's quality and move forward. Our expectations are always very high; we want to compete for trophies.

We are fully equipped and have been working together for 10 days, which always takes some time. There will be other teams facing the same issue. At the start of the season, it is crucial not to drop points, to work diligently, and to ensure that we are organized both with and without the ball.

We are not at 100% fitness yet, but we need to progress from game to game to improve and to deliver a higher level of performance as a team and from individual players. We will see how quickly we can achieve this process», Ten Hag told the BBC.

In their opening match of the Premier League season, Manchester United will face Fulham on August 16.
