Fornals: “It’s in our hands – we will fight for three points”

It’s not in Pablo Fornals’ mentality to go looking for excuses after a defeat and it was no different after the 3-2 defeat by Leeds.

Fornals had a very decent goal and scored a fine goal along the way so come out a loser in a five goal game is deeply disappointing for the young Spaniard.

However, he refuses to look over his shoulder for too long and instead of over-reflecting on a game which most thought was there to be won, he will instead be looking towards Old Trafford at the weekend.

And give the opposition’s for this season he and we have reason to be hopeful that we can put Sunday behind us and continue our assault on the top four.

It’s an important one as we ;look to remain ahead of the Old Trafford outfit in the battle for the top places and Fornals believes we will bounce back.

Commenting on the Leeds game on www.whufc.com he said: “It feels like a big opportunity missed, 100 per cent. It was tough today – we came back twice in the game, so we were disappointed [to concede a third].

“We tried to the end, this is why we are here because we fight to the end. We had many chances today but we didn’t get any points.

“It’s not what we want, to concede three goals in a game, and not what we’ve been doing. 

“It happened on Sunday and we will work on that, to start again with the clean sheets. 

“It’s all in our hands, all in our mentality. We want to continue how we have been doing, and it doesn’t matter who the next game is against, we are going to fight and try to get the three points.”
