Many Manchester United fans would not have blamed Erik ten Hag for discarding any of Ralf Rangnick’s advice on the back of last season.
The German saw the Reds finish with their worst Premier League points tally amid a drab run-in. Amidst the capitulation, Rangnick suggested that the club needed as many as 10 new signings.
Ten Hag did not quite agree but did welcome six new players into his squad. One of them, Antony, has made it harder for Anthony Elanga to enjoy as much game time.
