Ten Hag’s attention to detail
When Erik ten Hag became Man Utd’s manager, the first thing he did was to bring Steve McLaren are his assistant coach. He was at United during Sir Alex Ferguson’s era. Ten Hag brought Steve because he wanted to learn about the club and work culture in England.
However, from Steve McLaren, United fans learnt how much attention Ten Hag pays to every detail of every player and staff at the club. No other Manchester United manager did that apart from Sir Alex. This was important at that tumultuous time at Old Trafford.
Ten Hag is so detailed in everything that you can see how Man United players got better under him. Marcus Rashford was a different player and he won the PFA Fans Player of the Year because of that. Luke Shaw, Bruno Fernandes, Victor Lindelof, and many other Man Utd players have looked different altogether since Erik ten Hag took the reins of this club.
