Yes, the Dutch manager may deserve a chance. Bayer Leverkusen has signed him at the moment and must be confident in his abilities. He had a few good seasons with Ajax and went to Manchester United as a coach in form. He fell short of expectations at Manchester United and had some real problems. He also had similar problems with the players. This was his biggest criticism. Leverkusen is a team that is still dreaming of winning the championship. I hope Ten Hag will be a coach who can contribute to that.
The decision taken by Leverkusen was right because Xabi Alonso's departure to Real Madrid needed a coach who could understand Leverkusen's overall style and although Ten Haq had not succeeded in handling Manchester United, he had a good record when he was a coach Ajax. The English League is slightly different from other leagues and that is why Ten Haq failed and did not fulfill expectations when he was a Manchester United coach because the competition there was quite competitive and a number of players he had were also not in good performance.
Ten Hag deserves a chance, but we realize that Leverkusen fans cannot expect too much. In the Bundesliga, it is not easy to win trophies when you have to compete with Bayern Munich, let alone in the Champions League where everyone knows there are many better teams there. The chance to win trophies is certainly open to anyone, and who knows, Ten Hag might be as lucky as Xabi Alonso.
Despite many doubts, at least the appointment of Ten Hag as the new manager can maintain Leverkusen performance to continue competing at the top of the standings. However, before the season starts, Ten Hag must rebuild the depth of the squad, which of course will affect their journey next season.
