Lonnick: It had to be won so the bet was 4-2-4; now United are not easy to score

Tiger Poker 01/23 News In the 23rd round of the Premier League that ended in the early hours of this morning, Marcus Rashford came off the bench and scored in the 93rd minute of the game, with Manchester United beating West Ham 1-0 at home. After the match, Lonnick was interviewed on the club's official website.

About the final completion of the read seconds kill

"If you scored in the last second of the game, it couldn't be better, it's a very happy thing. We were in a grand atmosphere where the Manchester United players were pushed through the whole game and I can only say congratulations and thanks to the fans for their support, it made us even more relaxed, like I said, it was a grand, important victory. ”

'When we had the ball, we didn't know the right offensive thinking, especially when it came to the three zones, but after playing a game with Brentford three days ago, we were impressed by the defence of this game.

"I wouldn't mind a second-reading kill like this happening, but of course we would have liked to have more games like against Brentford, when we were able to take a 3-0 lead on the pitch. But if you score in the last second of the game, the biggest advantage is that the opponent doesn't have time to respond, and that's the benefit of today's goal. ”

Players from the bench teamed up to score goals to help the team win (Cavani assisted Marcus Rashford)

'Yeah, I'm very happy with the performance of the players, in the last 15 minutes we played a 4-2-4 formation, almost four strikers, but we knew we had to win this game and that's why we decided to take this risk.'

About Martial

"When we had a recent conversation a week and a half ago, I told him that we were going to keep our careers until the last day. There was no mention of how long he would stay at the club or what he wanted to leave, for me it was about professionalism and I thought the conversation with him was good. ”

"He was part of the squad in the last two games and today he played a vital role in us creating that goal. I know he's a top player, one of the best striker players in the Premier League, but we have other players in the same position and he wants to leave, like I said to him, 'Listen, reaching an agreement always requires different parts to negotiate', the way he trained and the way he played today shows what I expect from everyone, I'm so happy he's going to play today and he played a crucial role in the preparation for the goal. ”

About the control of the game

"Defensively, I think we did. Because from a normal game point of view, we didn't give them too many opportunities, like I said, it's not easy to deal with West Ham, they're a very physically strong team. I'm still not very happy with the way we control the ball, so this will be the work in the coming weeks and we will also find better possession options. ”

Well done on the defensive side

"I just remember that they had a good chance to break the goal and that corner when there were 5 minutes before the end of the game. Normally, I don't remember how many chances they had, we had three or four wonderful strikes on goal, especially Fred's shot in the first half, Ronaldo's header. It's a fierce and physically challenging game. ”

About winning two consecutive wins

"It's very important and we have high ambitions at the club. We will play Middlesbrough at home and then away to Burnley. All the games are challenging and we have to show a high level. Those games will be tough too, but I think the team has realised that they are slowly making progress. ”

"It's not easy to score goals with us now, that's the best part, not just not conceding goals, but the way we defend as a team. The team counter-pressure was good and we regained the ball. It's not easy to deal with physically strong players like Antonio. This is the part of the game that I really like. ”

About the rest that follows

"Yes, for everyone. For the players, for the staff. It's good to be able to take a little break and then we'll be able to get ready for the rest of the season. ”
