Anthony Elanga spoke about the differences between Manchester United and Nottingham Forest after scoring the winner against his former club.
Elanga returned to haunt the Red Devils on Tuesday by scoring the only goal of the game in a 1-0 win for Forest at Old Trafford.
The win boosts Forest’s hopes of securing Champions League football for next season with a top-four finish and continues a dismal season for Ruben Amorim’s side who remain in the bottom half of the table.
Elanga’s goal will be all the more painful for United as he spent two years at Old Trafford before joining Forest.
However, the 22-year-old is now in the midst of a fine season, with six goals and eight assists to his name in the Premier League, which is in sharp contrast to United’s attacking issues.
Elanga spoke about the differences between the two sides after the game and explained why he’s now thriving at the City Ground.
The Big Win
He told TNT Sports: “At United we had a lot of the ball, I say we had a lot of the ball and counter-attack football.
“And here it’s not rocket science, you can see all over the internet we’ve probably got the lowest possession in the league but it’s effective and something we’ve been working on since pre-season.
“It is about attacking the space and getting to the opposite goal as quick as I can.
“I saw the space and I believe I’m one of the fastest players in the league.
“The finish is something I have been trying to work on.
“Left foot or right foot, I am quite comfortable with both feet this season.
“All you want to do is keep on improving.
“Coming here is about playing and developing.
“I appreciate Manchester United so much as I learned a lot there.
“I am enjoying my football and I want to keep on going.”
