Man Utd Transfer News LIVE: Mazraoui CLOSE, Rabiot COMPETITION, Berge CONSIDERED

Although Matthijs de Ligt struggled for the Netherlands during September’s international break, the centre-back answered critics by scoring in Man Utd's win at Southampton on Saturday.

Dutch media outlet AD described the €45 million man as a ‘standout’ performer in the victory.

The article read, "The scoring de Ligt played a strong match and took revenge for his two poor matches last week in the shirt of Oranje." 

Stephen Warnock has told Sky Sports that he expects Man Utd to keep momentum after Saturday's 3-0 win at Southampton.

United dismissed the Saints but the former Liverpool left-back reveals Erik ten Hag will need to keep pushing for more.

"United fans want to see progress on the pitch. How the team are playing and what they are trying to achieve," said Warnock.

"They've got to build on this. The challenges will be bigger than Southampton but they struggled for half an hour."

Man Utd are set to offer Amad Diallo a new long-term contract as a reward for his superb start to the season.

Erik ten Hag says it is clear to see that Manuel Ugarte will bolster the Man Utd midfield.

The 23-year-old Uruguayan came off the bench in the 73rd minute against Southampton on Saturday to make his club debut, after signing with hours to spare in the transfer window.

“It was not so easy for him, only two team sessions and partial team sessions because he was not ready to play fully in that team session," the Dutch boss explained.

“He came back from a game in Venezuela, had a long journey, but he is not already 100 per cent up to speed but it was good to give him some minutes."

"To integrate in the team to already get some experience about the principles and rules of our game and you can see straightforward that he has attributes that this team need.”

Amad Diallo is having a great start to the season for the Red Devils, contributing in the final third of the pitch.

The 22-year-old has a goal and an assist in four Premier League games this term.

However, the Ivory Coast international also leads in many other attacking stats, per @StatmanDave.

Erik ten Hag was pleased with his side's dominance on Saturday, but explained that it was not an easy start.

“First 20 minutes was hard, tough, but that is often [the case] in games, you have to get a foothold in the game,” the Dutch boss said in his post-match interview with MUTV.

“Once Andre [Onana] stopped the penalty, straight after, we scored a goal with Matthijs de Ligt, the game was all ours and we dominate the game from that point.”

Andre Onana made a crucial penalty save during Saturday's victory at Southampton.

Following the game, he spoke in awe of the United away following.

"They were great. They were amazing. Like I always say, it doesn't matter where we go, we know we have our soldiers around us, so we are not alone," said the Cameroonian.

"They wil always be with us in good and bad moments. This is strong motivation. I'm so happy to play in front of them."

Good morning United fans.

Erik ten Hag's reds claimed all three points on Saturday away at Southampton.

What could have been a tricky fixture, was made easier by two first half goals.
