Erik ten Hag singles out Man Utd star as he makes standards clear with X-rated tirade

Erik ten Hag has barely been through the door at Old Trafford five minutes but is already developing a reputation as a hard taskmaster.

The disciplined Dutchman has come down hard on Manchester United's players, from banning alcohol on match weeks, implementing strict time-keeping rules including fines for those who fall foul, as well as press ups in training for conceding a goal.

Ten Hag has also been seen regularly barking orders at his troops during open training sessions on the club's pre-season tour of Asia and Australia, where they have so far collected three wins in as many matches - including a 4-0 drubbing of rivals Liverpool.
