"That is what we did so we are not happy with the point. We talk about coming here and winning the game and do our best to win the game. "We take the game in two parts," the Southampton manager said. Saints shared that frustration after failing to turn a largely dominant performance into a victory as Ruben Selles’ side fight to beat the drop. "But all in all the performance was quite well, then you are disappointed you only collect one point." Of course I have also seen the strike from them on the post and that was a mistake on counter from a corner from us one-on-one when David saved. We were with ten and we defended well, we had good counter breaks, we had some good attacks, some good opportunities. "We played I think with 11 and with ten a really good level. "Once again this team showed big spirit, team spirit, good fighting spirit, supporting each other," said the Dutchman, who downplayed Alejandro Garnacho’s injury after he was seen leaving Old Trafford on crutches with his right foot in a boot.

"I tell you Casemiro is a really fair player. "When you freeze it looks bad, but everyone who knows something about football, who is acting on top football, they know what is bad and what isn’t bad, what is fair. Same as against Crystal Palace, so it is very debatable. "He plays tough but he plays fair, also in this he is playing fair.

"The refereeing is coming at the start of the season with a policy ‘we are Premier League, we are going strong here, we want intensity’. ![]() "There is another one inconsistent," Ten Hag said. The 31-year-old was shown the first straight red of his time in Europe’s top leagues in last month’s 2-1 win against Crystal Palace and is now facing a four-match ban.

"I think especially the first one was for me clear and obvious handball, so what is the policy?" "Today it’s coming on the line and then it’s two penalty situations, but they don’t come on the line. I mean, you see on Saturday, Leicester-Chelsea, then VAR is not coming on the line. "The inconsistency players don’t know any more what is the policy," the United boss said on Casemiro’s sending off. Erik ten Hag felt his side should have been awarded a penalty Ten Hag was angered by that decision and calls for penalties – a potential foul from Kyle Walker-Peters and handball claim against Armel Bella-Kotchap – as United dug deep to stave off impressive Southampton's threat in a hard-fought 0-0 draw. Having bounced back from the seven-goal shellacking at Liverpool with a 4-1 win against Real Betis in the Europa League, the Red Devils had to show their character again.Ĭasemiro was sent off in the 34th minute after VAR Andre Marriner advised referee Anthony Taylor to review the challenge on Saints midfielder Carlos Alcaraz on the pitchside monitor.
