Aaron Wan-Bissaka believes he is fulfilling Erik ten Hag's demands by becoming more involved in attacking areas for Manchester United.

The 25-year-old has started United's last four matches at right-back and is enjoying a season of healthy competition with Diogo Dalot, who has in recent weeks drifted over to the left as cover for Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.

Often described as the more defensive option for his quality in defending one-v-one situations, Wan-Bissaka has improved his attacking threat over the course of his season and enjoyed a resurgence as a result.

"That is what I've been giving him.

He wants the full-back and winger to be on opposite lines, so if one is outside, the other is inside. That is what has been happening in the games on both sides of the pitch. "It gives more options for other players.
