Erik ten Hag has called on his Manchester United stars to become much more clinical if they want to get into the top four after almost letting a two-goal lead slip at Luton.

Rasmus Hojlund struck twice in the first seven minutes to put United in control but Luton dominated after Carlton Morris made it 2-1.

Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes all squandered opportunities to kill the match and were it not for the crossbar saving United from Ross Barkley’s header in stoppage time, this would have been two points dropped.

‘I think we should have scored much more goals. After 2-0 [there were] big chances for Rasmus and Garnacho.

‘We had massive chances and we should have scored. We needed to be more clinical, score more goals.’

Hojlund brace ensured he continued his goal scoring streak to six matches after a slow start to in the Premier League and Ten hag heaped praise on the Danish striker. 

‘When he started he didn’t have so much luck… the disallowed goal against Brighton as one,’ Ten Hag added.

‘Those kinds of moments are very important when you come to a new league, especially as a striker, to build some confidence.

The win over Luton has put United three points behind fifth-placed Tottenham and five adrift of Aston Villa in fourth in the race for Champions League football. 

United will seek to continue their impressive form next weekend when Fulham visit Old Trafford.
