Summer signings Joshua Zirkzee and Matthijs de Ligt both earned their first starts forthe club, while Academy product Alejandro Garnacho was in from the beginning for the first time this season.
“Again, we have to build a new team,” Ten Hag said. “I explained this so many times, also on the Friday in the press conference.
“We will build this new team. We have young players. Also, now, we have players to build in, in the seeason. Today I think we had two players, three players, first start of the season, and they didn’t play 90 minutes.”
But the manager is still assured that there is still plenty to look forward to this season, stating: “We will be fine, but it’s clear we have to improve. But in the end of the season, I’m quite confident, again, we will have a big chance to lift another trophy.”
