Man Utd in better place than last year – Ten Hag

Manchester United boss Erik Ten Hag reckons the club is in a better place than last year. It has been a forgettable season for the Red Devils as they have managed only 17 wins in 37 matches they have played in the Premier League. 

Ten Hag’s men are in eighth place in the Premier League standings before their last league stage match. Meanwhile, United had finished in third place in the standings in the previous season with 23 wins in 38 matches and thus had qualified for the UEFA Champions League. 

But things haven’t worked out for the club in the ongoing season as far as the results are concerned as they have gone south.

“When you look at the results, you would say no,” Ten Hag said as quoted by the BBC. “But we know the reasons behind that, so I would say yes.

“We have more high-quality players in the squad so, from that perspective, we are in a better position.”

Meanwhile, players like Ajelandro Garnacho, Rasmus Højlund, and Kobbie Mainoo have risen through the ranks for Manchester United.

“Manchester United is a very attractive club for any player,” said Ten Hag.

“We have developed some young players with very high potential who can add to the quality levels in our squad.

“With the established experienced players, it can make a very good mix. It can be a strong squad that can compete at the highest levels.”

Manchester United will play their last Premier League match against Brighton at the Falmer Stadium on Sunday. United will have a chance to end their season on a high as they will take on derby rivals Manchester City in the FA Cup final on 25th May at Wembley Stadium.
