Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is adamant his relationship with the squad is as strong as ever.

Before tonight's clash with Chelsea, Ten Hag responded to reports of losing the dressing room.

He said, "I listen always to my players and I always give them opportunities to tell [me]. And if the players have a different opinion, of course, I will listen. But they haven't told me - maybe one or two - but it's about, in general, the majority want to play like this. Proactive, dynamic, brave.

"That is what they want. You can see the players are behind it because of the performances against Everton and Galatasaray, and we are improving. You see that [Alejandro Garnacho] goal - do you think we can make a goal like we did against Everton if we didn't embrace it? What do you think?

"Not in the dressing room. I don't know, of course there are rumours about the strategic review, but it's not that we get distracted from it. We are on the journey, on the road. We know we are in transition but we are in the right direction and you see it.

"How we construct the team, how we develop the team, how the team is progressing and the young players coming in and you see the potential and how they can contribute to a very successful Manchester United for the future."
