Manchester United bounced back to winning ways with a 3-0 victory over Southampton on Saturday.
Matthijs de Ligt opened the scoring for the Red Devils before Marcus Rashford ended his goal drought with a curling effort just moments later. Alejandro Garnacho came off of the bench to cap off a strong performance from United, firing past Aaron Ramsdale in the 97th minute.
However, it was not all rosy for Ten Hag at St Mary’s, as his list of stars carrying knocks and injuries appeared to grow late on.

Maresca aims Sancho dig at Ten Hag
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca aimed a subtle dig at Erik ten Hag after his side’s 1-0 win over Bournemouth on Sunday night.
Jadon Sancho made a positive impact on his Blues’ debut, assisting Christopher Nkunku late on and impressing with his energy down the left.
Speaking after the game, Maresca hinted that Sancho will thrive as he will have the support he required.
The Chelsea manager said: “Christo [Nkunku] was very good. We decided to use Christo as a No 9 as he is good in the box. I have the feeling Jadon needs love.”
Man Utd injury crisis worsens
Manchester United have an injury crisis in defence ahead of their clash with Barnsley on Tuesday night.
Lisandro Martinez was withdrawn against Southampton after looking to have suffered a calf problem, with Matthijs de Ligt also being subbed off – though Erik ten Hag insists that the latter was removed due to cramp.
Harry Maguire came on in place of Martinez but quickly picked up a knock as well, with Noussair Mazraoui being substituted off and heading straight down the tunnel in the 74th minute.
With Leny Yoro, Victor Lindelof and Tyrell Malacia also injured, Diogo Dalot and Jonny Evans are the only two fully fit defenders at the Theatre of Dreams as it stands.
