Ten Hag:

“I don’t have any concern [about what is said on the outside].”

“What concerns me is that in 18 months I have never had my favourite team on the pitch, that concerns me, because players are injured.

“One time, against City at home last season — that is the only time I had a full squad where I can pick my team.

In all the other games always there was an injury aspect we have to deal with.

That is normal in football but not so many as we have had, and I know when you have so many injuries as we have had in crucial key positions you can’t deliver the results you want to bring.

“That is my truth, others can have a different truth but I can’t put energy in that.”

Ten Hag is set to be without six first-team players at Wembley, though expects to have Antony and Scott McTominay back and is hopeful about the fitness of defender Harry Maguire.
