<\/a>Dalot on how Man Utd can improve<\/p>\n

Ahead of tonight\u2019s Premier League clash with Wolves, Diogo Dalot says that he and his teammates must be \u2018obsessed\u2019 with how they can win. <\/p>\n

\u201cI think we\u2019ve shown this season that we can be a very good team and we can beat anybody,\u201d Dalot said. \u201cThen, it\u2019s something that we need to get into ourselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes, it\u2019s not football qualities. It has to be from inside. It has to be from the anger and the drive that you have every day to win football games and to live your life like that.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we need to become a bit more obsessed about playing for this club, winning games and winning trophies for this club. But it\u2019s a process.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/a>Oliver Glasner not getting carried away by Palace’s great form<\/p>\n

The Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner said: \u201cI\u2019ll have to ask if we get a bonus if we are fourth in December \u2013 I don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course it\u2019s nice, but for me what I\u2019m thinking of is we\u2019re always talking in the last games it felt we were getting a bit fatigued at the end of the game due to our schedule, and today I felt it was the opposite.<\/p>\n

\u201cI said to the players that\u2019s who we want to be, that\u2019s who we are, always being ready to support the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what I\u2019m thinking about and for me fourth place in the league is not that important.\u201d<\/p>\n
