Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag criticized his players after a 4-3 loss to Chelsea in the Premier League on Thursday night, April 4, 2024.

Despite a strong showing from United, including two goals from Alejandro Garnacho, Chelsea secured victory with a late double from Cole Palmer, including a penalty awarded after Diogo Dalot fouled Noni Madueke.

Speaking to TNT Sports post-match, Ten Hag expressed disappointment with his team's individual errors, emphasizing the need for improvement.

He stated, "Manchester United dominated the game, but our individual mistakes cost us dearly. We must learn from this experience. As Manchester United players, we should possess the ability to handle such situations."

Ten Hag lamented United's recent drop in form, noting the loss of five points in five days as unacceptable for a team aspiring to compete for Champions League qualification.

He concluded, "I don't know if the top four is still attainable. We must reassess our position in the table. Every point will be crucial going forward. It's deeply disappointing to squander games we should have won."
