Erik ten Hag gives verdict on Marcel Sabitzer debut after chaotic Man Utd victory

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag was impressed with what he saw from Marcel Sabitzer on the midfielder's Man Utd debut.

The Austrian international moved to Old Trafford on transfer deadline day, joining on loan from Bayern Munich to cover for Christian Eriksen's injury. He wasn't deemed ready to start the weekend victory over Crystal Palace, but was introduced by the manager for the final 10 minutes as a replacement for Antony.

Sabitzer was introduced during a frantic end to the game, as United were left hanging on in the closing stages after Casemiro's red card allowed Palace back into the game. With the Brazil midfielder missing the next three league games after his part in a brawl, former RB Leipzig man Sabitzer could find himself thrown into the starting XI sooner than anticipated.
