Erik ten Hag has been encouraged to try and form a closer relationship between the Manchester United fans and players as part of Steve McClaren's masterplan.
The Red Devils have made a positive start to pre-season, having won three of their four matches so far. They secured a 4-0 win over Liverpool in their first friendly in Singapore, before beating Melbourne Victory 4-1 and Crystal Palace 3-1 - with Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial amongst those to impress.
However, United were dealt a late blow in their fourth pre-season game after conceding an injury-time equaliser to draw 2-2 with Aston Villa in Australia on Saturday. Sancho's first-half strike and a Matty Cash own-goal gave the Red Devils a two-nil lead at the break, however, Villa came out much brighter in the second-half. Leon Bailey scored their first before Calum Chambers headed home in the dying enviers.
