UNCOVERED: Manchester united manager erik ten hag explains substitutions vs fulham - Caught on Camera

Erik ten Hag insists Scott McTominay was an attack-minded substitution despite Manchester United's struggles in the second-half of their win over Fulham.

With United under the cosh and 1-0 up, Ten Hag introduced McTominay for right winger Anthony Elanga in the 55th minute but fellow substitute Daniel James equalised for Fulham six minutes later.

McTominay initially occupied the No.10 role and Bruno Fernandes moved to the right-hand side but Ten Hag eventually moved McTominay to a deeper role and pushed Christian Eriksen higher up.
