Erik ten Hag has been firm but fair in his team selections during his first season as Manchester United boss.
By and large, he has given ample opportunity for most of his squad to show their worth. Some have lodged criticism that he has done so too much with certain players, namely Donny van de Beek.
But Ten Hag has also shown his ruthlessness in his determination to keep high standards and ensure the team remains on target. The likes of Jadon Sancho, Harry Maguire, Fred and Scott McTominay have all found this out.
