The competition with Bayer Leverkusen is no less because the bosses do expect Leverkusen to have a say in the title race. I don't think Manchester United really believes in a chance to win the Premier League anytime soon.
I really don't like the fact that too many forget how much of a sound manager Erik ten Hag was with Ajax. The task that comes with being a Manchester United fan is just too much. Things didn’t go as planned and that part of life but, I will never use that to judge him ahead of the new season. He is the same man that knocked out Real Madrid in the Champions League Competition with is Ajax. He has what it take to turn Bayern Leverkusen to a competitive side regardless of the bad spell he had with Man United.
