United appointed Ten Hag as their new manager earlier this year following a miserable campaign under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his interim successor Ralf Rangnick. But the ex-Ajax boss got his Old Trafford tenure off to a dismal start as his side fell to the bottom of the Premier League table after losing 2-1 to Brighton before being thumped 4-0 by Brentford.
The Red Devils have since found their form in the top-flight and have beaten Liverpool, Southampton and Leicester over the last fortnight. That run has seen them keep back-to-back clean sheets as the Saints and the Foxes both failed to find a way past David de Gea. And Ten Hag has lauded his side’s recent defensive displays.
Meanwhile, United winger Jadon Sancho has praised the impact Ten Hag has had since his arrival in the north west and insists the players are enjoying their football under their new mentor. „We’re gelling well, we’re playing more in his style and everyone is loving it at the moment,” exclaimed the England international.
