Daley Blind has already pinpointed Erik ten Hag's main strength for Manchester United

Daley Blind has already pinpointed the biggest strength Erik ten Hag would bring to Manchester United should he arrive at Old Trafford. Blind spent four seasons at Old Trafford between 2014 and 2018 and is enjoying his second spell with Eredivisie giants Ajax having played 37 games under Ten Hag this campaign.

Blind, 32, won two domestic trophies and the Europa League during his time at United. He was part of the last side to bring silverware back to the club in 2017.

A return to Ajax followed 12 months later. Since then, the 88-cap Netherlands international has struck up a strong working relationship with Ten Hag and the highly-rated Ajax coach has been identified as a preferred candidate to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on a permanent basis.
