The Mailbox answers the question of how Erik ten Hag has improved Man Utd. Also: the Real deal for Cristiano Ronaldo; and indifference towards City...
The most positive I’ve been since Fergie was the back end of van Gaal’s first season. We played superb football , threw any chance at the league away by playing Rooney as cover for Carrick and letting Falcao miss 20 chances against Chelsea, plus Louis got pissed at the awards night and flirted with a violinist.
So we’re not playing particularly good football and results are all over the place… why the positivity? Also, there’s a thing called trajectory. The nadir of last season means, barring a complete collapse, we’re on the way up. Liverpool on the other hand, even if they scrape past us for 4th.. it’s a long way back to 97 points and annual champions league finals against Madrid?…Ok, I’ll bite. What has Ten Hag done to improve this team? We’ll start top down.
He’s improved the coaching. Rashford is a much better player under Ten Hag – yes this is down to Benni McCarthy as well, but he was brought in when Ten Hag was manager. Luke Shaw has been dependable and looks like a good defender again. The team plays with a reliable system. There are patterns of play we expect to see. There is more to the gameplan than Ole’s “put 11 players in the team and hope Fernandes or Pogba create something out of nothing”. The team defends as a team.
…Ok Lee, I’ll bite. But first let’s refute your conclusion that this has been your worst season in a decade. I understand why you would want to forget the 20/21 season, given it was a laughable defence of the title. However, at this stage of that season you had fewer points and a lower goal difference. There is some striking similarities given you were hilariously dumped out early in the cups ; the difference being this time you don’t have the excuse of VVD being injured for most of the season .
