Manchester United fans have been reacting to reports that Steve McClaren is being considered as Erik ten Hag’s number two, should he be appointed as the club’s next boss.
McClaren was Sir Alex Ferguson’s assistant between 1999 and 2001, helping the club to the famous Treble in his debut year. The 60-year-old also guided FC Twente to their only Dutch title in their professional history in the 2009/10 season, in which ten Hag was his assistant.
He was handed the England manager’s job in 2006 but was quickly removed the following year after the Three Lions failed to qualify for Euro 2008. McClaren subsequently went on to have two stints at Derby County, and tenures with Newcastle and QPR.
