Looking back at Erik ten Hag's first Manchester United press conference one year ago today, the first thing that hits you is how much his English has improved in 12 months.
Ten Hag's communications that day in a bustling Old Trafford press room were brief and occasionally stilted. His answers were often short and always to the point.
In the year since his communication has improved considerably. His answers in press conferences are often more engaging now and he carries the aura of a United manager.
