He’s being linked with a place on Erik ten Hag’s coaching staff, but Manchester United fans think Jaap Stam could still do a job for them in their current defence.
The Dutchman was back in action at Old Trafford on Saturday as he starred in the Legends of the North game for United against their old rivals Liverpool. A number of familiar faces joined him back at the Theatre of Dreams, including Gary Neville, Patrice Evra and Dimitar Berbatov.
Stam though left a lot of United fans impressed with his performance as lined up back in the heart of the defence. Although the hosts went on to lose the game 3-1, Stam’s display saw him earn top marks from the Manchester Evening News alongside goalscorer Berbatov.
