Ten Hag Praises Zirkzee’s Promising Premier League Debut

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag expressed his satisfaction with Joshua Zirkzee's impressive Premier League debut. The newly-signed striker from Bologna scored the only goal in United's 1-0 victory over Fulham last Friday.

Ten Hag noted that Zirkzee's early goal would build his confidence and energize the team. Comparing to Rasmus Hojlund's delayed first goal last season, Ten Hag emphasized the importance of an early morale boost.

Despite key players like Rasmus Hojlund, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, and Victor Lindelof being sidelined due to injuries, Ten Hag highlighted the necessity for teamwork and staying motivated throughout the season.
