“Mo got into it because of a certain lifestyle and will now have to fight his way out of it. We all help him, but in the end he has to do it himself. How satisfied I am? Well, I want him at the first, but he has to do that himself…”
High speed and intensity
The 19-year-old Ihattaren made the switch to Juventus in August, after he fell into disfavor with PSV coach Roger Schmidt. Juventus immediately leased him to Sampdoria. But he didn’t play in Genoa for the first few months, after which he returned to the Netherlands in October without permission.
Ten Hag is especially dissatisfied with the physical improvement at Ihattaren in recent weeks. “If you can’t run, then everything stops. By that I mean running at Eredivisie or Champions League level. Then you are asked that you can make meters at high speed and intensity. If you can’t, everything stops. It depends on him how fast that goes.”
