Peter Schmeichel gives his verdict on Erik ten Hag's first season as Manchester United manager

Former goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel is adamant that Manchester United are moving in the right direction under manager Erik ten Hag.

The legendary shot-stopper made the admission ahead of the Reds' FA Cup semi-final against Brighton & Hove Albion at Wembley on Sunday afternoon. A victory will seal United's place in their second domestic cup final of the season, following their Carabao Cup triumph over Newcastle United back in February.

The victory over the Magpies marked United's first trophy in almost six years, offering encouragement that the club is making progress under Ten Hag, who, on the whole, has overseen a brilliant job since taking charge last summer. He has restored standards and given United's supporters optimism that the good times could soon return to Old Trafford.
