Erik ten Hag has branded Newcastle “annoying” and accused them of time-wasting tactics ahead of tomorrow's EFL Cup final.
Ten Hag's Manchester United take on Eddie Howe's side at Wembley, with the Dutchman claiming Newcastle are one of the most annoying opponents they could face – because of their underhand tactics.
Old Trafford boss Ten Hag claimed Howe's side have the ball in play for the least amount of time in the Premier League and warned his players not to get wound up by the tactic. The United boss called on EFL Cup final referee David Coote to keep an eye on Newcastle's time-wasting at Wembley.
