Another heavy loss at Old Trafford could have significant ramifications and the manager may have to sacrifice ideals
Erik ten Hag should not overload the Manchester United players with intricate plans at this delicate stage.Erik ten Hag should not overload the Manchester United players with intricate plans at this delicate stage.Last modified on Sat 20 Aug 2022 12.07 BSTrik ten Hag is confident in his ability to turn around Manchester United’s fortunes despite defeats in their two opening Premier League fixtures.
Those who have played under Ten Hag say his methods take time to get used to. United fans are behind Ten Hag, knowing the breadth of the task, but if the first few months continue along these lines as the Dutchman waits for everything to click into place, then he might not be permitted the requisite time to correct the years of wrongs at United.
Scott McTominay and Fred are not the long-term solution to United’s midfield problems but Ten Hag has to work with what is available against Liverpool. Neither are able to provide sharp passing and quick progress up the pitch. One could have to partner Casemiro, and Ten Hag may want to test himself by converting the duo into being able to play something akin to his style but that might be a step too far and needs to accept their strengths rather than trying to correct in-built flaws.
When Stefan Savic joined Manchester City, he struggled in the air and was bullied by numerous strikers, leaving him debilitated on the pitch. Despite his failings, Roberto Mancini insisted on putting him in the firing line when short on confidence. His City career never recovered. The Montenegrin, however, has gone on to have an impressive career with Fiorentina and Atlético Madrid, where he was managed with greater understanding and allowed to grow.
