In his exclusive matchday Q&A with MUTV's Mark Sullivan, the boss also discusses the form of Harry Maguire, Casemiro's ability to play out from the back and a target being realised by handing a debut to the club's 250th Academy graduate to represent the first team in Ethan Wheatley.
The manager also explains why he thinks the goals have been flowing since the turn of the year for his team and how Alejandro Garnacho can act as an inspiration to all of the youngsters dreaming of representing the Reds' senior side at Carrington.
Erik, a much-needed win on Wednesday, a good victory.
