Lonnick: McTominay has amazing energy and we still need to work on it

Live bar January 11 news In an FA Cup game played today, Manchester United 1-0 Villa, advancing to the fourth round. After the game, Manchester United manager Ronnick gave an interview to the BBC.

Lonnick said: "I think we showed great form after the game against Wolves and that's what everybody expects of us. We knew it would be very difficult against Villa. In the first half I think we did a good job. At halftime, we could have been 3-2 or 4-3. ”

"In the second half we fought back and we could have done more in this situation. We sometimes made the wrong decisions, but when we changed to a diamond position in midfield, we had more possession. ”

"In the last 20 minutes of the game, we have more control. At critical moments, we fought well together as a team. In the end it was a beautiful victory. That's our goal – to move on to the next round. ”

On McTominay's goal: "His energy is amazing. He's starting to score goals now and has some leadership skills as well. I wouldn't be surprised if he would become the captain of this team in a few years. ”

On goal difference, Lonnick said: "We have to build the team into a good team and for me, De Gea was outstanding again today. ”

Commenting on Villa's goal, which was ruled invalid by VAR, Lonnick said: "We looked in the dressing room and when I saw the goal, it was clear to me – the player who blocked Edani was offside at the moment the ball came over. ”

Asked if he had seen the team improve, Lonnick said: "Yes, if I say it's a perfect game, no one will believe it; of course, it's not a perfect game. We still have quite a few things we could have done better, but today's clean sheets are important, we worked hard together and there are still a lot of things that need to be improved, but a 1-0 win made it easier for us to do that. ”
