Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag insists his attack is good enough after defeat at West Ham.

United lost 2-0 in London earlier today.

Ten Hag said, "We created three good chances, we didn't take them, one moment of switching off and we are down, we are losing the game. I think that is how I see the performance.

"As I said before, we have players who can [score], they proved it in the past they can do it. But we also have to acknowledge the facts that we didn't do as a team and we have to take responsibility and of course, football is about winning games and is about scoring goals.

"We have issues, we had many setbacks, injuries, etc. But the players on the pitch are good enough to win the game. So it is also about get into the box, make sure you are there, make sure you have the willingness to arrive there and the willingness to be clinical and score a goal.

"I know Rashford can score a goal, Hojlund can score a goal, Antony can score a goal, Garnacho can score a goal, Bruno can score a goal, Scott McTominay can score a goal, so we have the scoring abilities in our squad. Also from set-plays.

"So in this moment, we are not doing but they have to stick together and also believe in themselves that they can do it, they can get there and have to be where you have to score and that is in the box, especially in the double six-yard box, there you have to arrive as a striker."
