January 14, according to The Times, before Ronaldo accepted Morgan’s interview
, Ten Hag had many conversations with Ronaldo, wanting him to stay in the team.
Whenever Ten Hag arrives at the first-team building at Carrington, he keeps United’s high expectations in mind.
However, in the 3-6 loss to Manchester City in October last year, this result obviously did not meet the team’s requirements.
It is conceivable that Ten Hag was not satisfied with this result, and he used the word “embarrassing” to describe the team’s performance after the game.
Ten Hag also started to use harsh words towards the team.
After that Manchester derby, Manchester United won 15, drew 2 and lost 1 in 18 games.
The only defeat in that game was against Villa in November.
After losing to Villa, Manchester United won 8 consecutive victories.
But at Ten Hag’s table, he is thinking about how to give the team nutrition before the game.
After defeating Everton and Charlton, Manchester United’s coaching team did not celebrate too much, because they knew that the opponents the team faced were not the top, and the team’s performance was far from Ten Hag’s requirements.
far away.
And insiders will tell you that Manchester United’s recent excellent performance is not due to the disastrous defeat against Manchester City, but because of the team’s future plans.
Ten Hag’s changes to the team have had an effect, new aids Lisandro and Casemiro have also adapted to the team, and team discipline has also improved.
One of Ten Hag’s rules was that if players didn’t follow his rules, then they were to leave the team.
This is why Ronaldo left.
Perhaps this is different from what some people think. In fact, before Ronaldo was interviewed by Morgan, Ten Hag always wanted Ronaldo to stay in the team.
The two had countless conversations. Ten Hag hoped that Ronaldo would stay in the team, and he respected Ronaldo very much.
But the Portuguese star did not agree with Ten Hag’s role positioning for him, so Ronaldo was terminated by Manchester United in the end.
Ten Hag has given the message of discipline to the players.
The coaching team believes that if the players are slack in training, it will be reflected in the game, so laziness is not allowed.
Rashford was late for a meeting two weeks ago and he paid the price.
The strict new rules have also been welcomed by the players.
B Fee said: “This is a good thing for everyone, let them understand that we cannot cross the line, you must abide by the rules of the head coach.”
Ten Hag was a disciplined manager but, according to those who worked with him, he was also an empathetic individual who valued mental health as well as physical fitness.
The players have improved a lot recently because they are getting to know Ten Hag’s rules and he is hands-on in training.
Ten Hag was at Carrington this week as usual, focusing on the job at hand, meeting with his coach and analysts.
The same goes for next week, regardless of the result of the Manchester derby.
Even if United win, Ten Hag’s message is the same: there is still work to be done before trophies can be won.
