Steve McClaren will return to Manchester United as an assistant coach once again to Erik ten Hag and has opened up on the leadership group the new coaching staff at Old Trafford are looking to forge.
The former England manager's exact quote coined the term "cultural architect" - a phrase he may have first been introduced to while he was part of Sven-Goran Eriksson's Three Lions backroom staff in 2002. Eriksson consulted a a Norwegian sports psychologist by the name of Willi Railo before the World Cup later that year.
McClaren's appointment ahead of next season marks his return to Old Trafford 21 years after he first left the club. He has discussed how Ten Hag may assess the situation surrounding the club captaincy given there has been intense speculation suggesting current skipper Harry Maguire could be stripped of the armband.
