[New post] Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag reveals what he said to Alejandro Garnacho to inspire FA Cup heroics against West Ham
Josh Fordham posted: " Erik ten Hag believes Alejandro Garnacho has taken another step in his development with his FA Cup heroics. The 18-year-old helped inspire Manchester United's late comeback against West Ham as they booked their place in the next round. " talkSPORT
There appeared to be a slight hangover from winning the Carabao Cup on Sunday as Said Benrahma put the Hammers ahead.
It took until the 77th minute for Ten Hag's side to kick into gear at Old Trafford as Nayef Aguerd's own goal drew United level.
Garnacho netted a 90th minute goal to put the Red Devils ahead, before Fred fired in a third five minutes into stoppage time.
"I see today another step," manager Ten Hag said of the teenager. "I tell him before the game 'it's getting time you had an impact when you come on, but now you need to have impact as a starter'.
"I think he is capable of it so that is the next step he needs to take.
"That (fearlessness) is one of his skills. But definitely it is a great skill when you are fearless, when you are brave.
"He is one of the players that I think has a skill that is so specific.
"There are not so many players in world football who can take players on, who are capable of just going at players and out dribble them.
"But he has more skill than only that, for example, finishing.
"I see he also has a big engine. He is fast and has speed, but he can keep running for 90 minutes or 120 minutes."
