Manchester United fans have hailed Erik ten Hag's elite mentality after he made a 'satisfaction' claim ahead of his side's game against Brighton.

Man United resume their league campaign on Thursday following their 1-0 win over Aston Villa last weekend.

They travel to Brighton for a crunch Premier League clash, having beaten them in the FA Cup semi-final last month.

The Red Devils look well-placed to secure Champions League football for next season, with Ten Hag also bringing in silverware in the shape of the Carabao Cup.

Speaking ahead of his team's trip to the AMEX Stadium, Ten Hag refused to reflect on the success of the season as he claimed 'satisfaction can lead to laziness'.

He said: "I don't want to talk during the season of being proud or satisfied.

"Satisfaction can lead to laziness, we have six games to go and we want to win every game.

"You need full focus, full energy and full preparation.

"It's going to be a fight and we have to get ready for the fight to get the points."

The Dutchman added: "We want to win every game and we want to win every competition.

"It's clear we want to be in the Champions League and that's the competition we're now fighting for because the FA Cup final is after the [Premier League] season is over.

"I never speak about 'if' scenarios, either negative or positive. I focus on the game tomorrow - don't dream but stay with the same focus as others.

"You have to improve every game. Good is not good enough - we have to do better."

Ten Hag's comments during his pre-match press conference were hailed by Man United fans on social media.

One tweeted: "This man has changed our lives and I love him an UNHEALTHY amount. Standards being set at #mufc after so many years."

A second wrote: "To many more years of this mentality."

A third added: "My manager."

Will Man United seal a top-four finish this season? Let us know.
