The Dutchman has had three full transfer windows at Man United but wasteful performances against Wolves and Tottenham suggest goals will continue to be a problem.
Erik ten Hag will have taken several concerns into the new week following Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Tottenham, not least a continued wastefulness in front of goal.

Marcus Rashford saw an early effort saved by Vicario before heading a good chance over, while Antony hit the post with a strike that really should have rippled the net. Alejandro Garnacho carved out a nice opening but his effort was weak.
"One or two minutes from the final whistle I always hope we can score a late goal, as we did against West Ham for example," Rangnick admitted of his side in February of last year.

His side have created an expected goals tally of 3.9 in their first two games, according to FBRef, but have just one goal to show for it.
Ten Hag is now at a point in his tenure where he will be harshly judged, having invested over £400million into his squad when including performance-related add-ons. One of United's major problems when he arrived was a lack of goal threat and, albeit with Hojlund yet to prove his quality, that issue has not been addressed.
