Ghana international Mohammed Kudus has described Manchester United under Erik Ten Hag as ‘a very good side’ after West Ham United's 2-0 win over the Red Devils.
West Ham United signed off 2023 at London Stadium with a hard-fought victory over the Red Devils as Kudus and Jarrod Bowen netted in quick succession in the second half.
The result puts the Hammers up to sixth in the Premier League, temporarily at least, and the 23-year-old was pleased with a big result in east London.
Manchester United have won just one match out of their last five in the top flight and Erik ten Hag's side have lost more games than they have won this season across all competitions.
“Manchester United are a very good team and everybody gave their best,” Kudus Mohammed told West Ham United's official website.
“They are a very good side and we knew it. We had to be very disciplined defensively and then make use of the counter-attacks when we won the ball. We were able to do that and I’m very happy for it to work.
“It was 100 per cent important we bounced back. We learn from the down times and then enjoy the ups. It was a bad game at Liverpool but it was good to get this win, especially in the last game before Christmas for the fans.
“The best gift I can give is my performance in a win today. It was so important to win and I want to thank all the West Ham fans for their support. Credit to the fans, I’m glad we made them happy.”
Kudus has so far scored nine goals and provided one assist in 23 appearances in his debut season at West Ham United since joining them on a long-term contract from Ajax.
