    Ever since Sir Alex Ferguson departed Manchester United the club has struggled to find a successful manager. That is until this season and the arrival of Erik ten Hag. The dutchman has revolutionised the way United play. Seemingly overnight he has moved the team from a counter-attacking style under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, to a possessional style similar to the Ajax team he created.
    So how has he done it? Which players have improved the most? How far are United from challenging the very best clubs?
    Jon Mackenzie explains. Henry Cooke illustrates.

    ETH had a rough start, and he saw fit to fix the cracks right away, benching a fatigue and low confidence maguire, tackling the Ronaldo situation with letting him go and even giving Sancho space to recover from mental health. In this time he made utd dominant in midfield, gave us the unlikely partnership of Licha x Varane (which is simply world class) and has made rashford a baller again. If he keeps doing this and everyone stands behind him he could be the next SAF and stay with us for years bring back the dominate utd once more.

      The connection between fans and team is of little importance. I'm sure clubs like Leeds and Southampton can also have connections between fans and players. The most important aspect is the actual quality on the pitch. Players like Varane, Martinez, Shaw & Dalot playing regularly have added much needed quality from the back. The expensive acquisitions of Casemiro & Antony have helped tremendously. Eriksen has added outstanding quality in the middle of the park. Fan support is peripheral

    I have been a Man Utd fan for 30 years and a football fan for a little longer. Until ETH came to United, I didn't really see the influence a manger could bring. After all, it's the players who play, make decisions on the field and ultimately, win or lose a game. But that way of thinking has honestly been destroyed now. The choices he has made, the players he has brought in and the approach to training, discipline and effort have made a huge difference to this team. Now I really understand why the right manager can be worth 10 wins a season.
    Ragnick also has to take some praise though. He came into the club, saw how bad things were and exposed the entire backroom issues which cost him his job. Had it not been for his willingness to change things, we would still be struggling with behind the scenes issues and not have ETH here.

    The important key to MU's revival in my opinion :
    ✔️ The arrival of Erik Ten Hag. Ten Hag brings new tactics that are suitable for MU's game. He is also very disciplined & strict to his players
    ✔️ Ronaldo's exit. The weakness of the previous coach was when the ball must always be aimed at Ronaldo & Ronaldo must always be played. That causes monotonous tactics & many failures due to inaccurate passes to Ronaldo.
    ✔️ Harry Maguire's benched. In the past, Harry Maguire always made a lot of mistakes for the team. As captain, he showed a lot of poor performance
    ✔️ Bringing in quality players. Casemiro & Martinez are one of MU's most successful purchases, they are now an important part of the team
    ✔️ Other factors : Bruno is a better captain than Maguire. MU's more flexible & flowing game. The rise of young talents like Rasford & Garnacho. And etc.

    Think he has done an incredible job, and deserves massive credit.
    I think he has made Man United defensively very solid, had confidence to twist and remove players, and it has really helped. Man United made a great decision signing him early in 2022, so gave him the chance to visualize the team, and give his ideas to the board before moving in the summer, and meant that key targets were bought, and his style could be implemented early.
    The only aspect I think needs work on is on the attacking front. Rashford seems to be on fire at the moment, and usually individual brilliance is getting them the result. That can work for a while, but I'd like to see more dominance in games

      Ole's United were an individual brilliance team for sure, that's why he eventually got sacked, because eventually reality would kick in & you need tactics to win titles and trophies, which Ole lacked. That's why an average Villarreal side were able to outclass expensive Man United in the Europa League final, because Unai Emery is a better manager. Ole also failed to sign a competent starting midfielder for 3 years and persisted with McFred whilst Ten Hag immediately addressed the midfield issue in his first season.
      Ole apologists are hilarious with the excuses they make. Ronaldo was an issue yes, but you cannot blame a striker for a team's lack of defensive discipline - when they got piped 4-2 by Leicester, 4-1 by Watford, 5-0 by Liverpool, you cannot "blame" that on Ronaldo. You blame that on Ole not realising how important a defensive midfielder is in a football system.

    heard this about all the previous managers when they were initially doing ok.
    Ole is at the wheel.

    His job is far from done at the club but his tactics and his man management is what improve the club. He will be a successful manager for years to come.

    I love this man so much that if he brought on Addison Rae as a striker I wouldn't question him.

    Targeted purchase is the secret sauce of this team that fits ten hag's ball playing. There is a lot more to prove though for this team.

    Apart from trophies Ole done a better job his last season was bad performance but he managed the team to reach back to back UCL qualification and also managed to sign Bruno from Sporting and his second season with United was truly underappreciated because before Bruno arrival the team doesn't have any chance of UCL qualification using Bruno he managed to reach the UCL qualification in the last game day. In his second regular season he managed to get the team second position in the leauge and also made Degea to improve by making him and Henderson in GK position by rotation
