David Moyes makes sure that Adnan Januzaj works hard

Manchester United manager David Moyes praised Adnan Januzaj’s impact and talent but insisted that the club are always pushing him on to get better.

Januzaj scored his first goal at Old Trafford in the 3-1 win against West Ham on Saturday and put in another classy display to please his manager.

The youngster has hit the ground running with his United career this season and looks to be improving with every passing week but Moyes still wants more.

“He’s doing really well,” said Moyes. “We’re always going to be hard on him and push him. We’re looking for more off him all the time but for an 18-year-old boy, he’s doing remarkably well.

“He can score goals and he can play several positions. He’s a real talent.”

Januzaj was also booked for diving in the first half when he saw a challenge come in from James Collins but Moyes defending him in his post-match press conference.

“If you look at the last two games and the amount of tackles that this boy has had to take, he has had more than any other player,” Moyes said of Januzaj, who scored one and created another goal.

“He thought he was going to get scythed down. He’s been getting kicked in every game. We’ll talk to him about it but I said last week that there were a lot of people having a kick at Adnan because he’s very difficult to mark and he’s elusive the way he moves.

“It can bring defenders into tackles but it’s the referees that have to call it right. I just hope that they don’t wait until he gets a bad one before they get it right.”
