Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has reportedly been left ‘pleased’ with how his new squad has taken on board his new methods and emerged with a positive first impression.
The Dutchman was confirmed as the Red Devils’ head coach in April as he succeeded Ralf Rangnick at the helm at Old Trafford. He ended his Ajax contract early to get a head-start on the sheer amount of work required at Old Trafford.
Ten Hag has also had the opportunity to meet a select few of his squad this week with those who were not on international duty throughout the summer returning to the club’s Carrington training base earlier this week. He has attempted to stamp his authority and footballing philosophy on the squad and the early signs look to be positive.
