Erik Ten Hag's squad seems to be entering a very positive trend. they won 5 matches, in all competitions. and uniquely, Rashford is the player Ten Hag can rely on the most. as I said in many previous posts, that I'm pretty sure Ten Hag will bring United to a big change compared to previous coaches, except Six Alex Ferguson.
Ten Hag brought United much more discipline, the bond between their players began to form especially after Ronaldo left. Ten Hag's patterns and strategies are starting to take shape, he just needs a few new arrivals both this January and next summer's transfer market window. even so, United still have tough matches, especially in their Domestic League. and what is certain, Ten Hag knows very well that he cannot always rely on Rashford with high performance from match to match. automatically, Man United will bring in several newcomers, unfortunately we don't know for sure who they will bring in, especially for pure strikers.
On the other hand, Barcelona have experienced improvements in their defense and this was proven during the match vs Atletico Madrid. so, we can't be sure because these two teams haven't really shown their best performance yet.
Hopefully Erik Ten Hag can usher in a golden era like Alex Ferguson did, even if it's very difficult.
Since Erik Ten Hag took charge of this team, indeed something has changed, in his hands the shape of Manchester United's game is clear. Starting from small things, for example, usually Manchester United are not so brave in holding the ball for too long, they are more likely to immediately push into the attack line even though it ends in failure. But in the hands of Ten Hag they were more daring in holding the ball and building up attacks from below.
