Jadon Sancho: 'We knew we had to wake up after the Brentford game'

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag believes Jadon Sancho can become more prolific following his winner against Leicester City.

The England international was also on the scoresheet in last month's 2-1 win against Liverpool, which kick-started a run of three successive wins for United following a troubled start to the Premier League.

We spoke to the United winger following Thursday night's game at the King Power Stadium.

Yeah it has been good. The most important thing is the team playing well. When the team plays well individual moments come to light. I just have to keep up this and hopefully I will.

It is a long tine, but every week is going
