Erik ten Hag, the current manager of Manchester United, has set his sights on winning his third trophy for the club. Despite a rough start to the season, the Dutchman remains confident in his team's ability to achieve their trophy ambitions. Since joining the Red Devils in 2022, ten Hag has already led the team to victory in the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.
However, he knows that there is still a long way to go before achieving their ultimate goal. Speaking at the Football Writers' Association Northern Managers' Awards, ten Hag acknowledged the team's poor start and emphasized the importance of consistency in winning trophies. He also highlighted the fact that trophies are not won in the early stages of the season, but rather in the crucial months of April and May.
As a manager, ten Hag's main responsibility is to develop his team and ensure that they are ready to win trophies. He understands that this is a journey and it takes time to build a successful team. Despite some early setbacks, he believes that Manchester United is heading in the right direction and urged the writers to be patient and see how the season unfolds.
There were reports circulating that ten Hag had only two games to save his job as United boss, but the team's recent performances against Aston Villa and Brentford have eased some of the pressure. The Red Devils managed a 0-0 draw at Villa and a 2-1 win at Old Trafford, showing signs of improvement.
Next on the agenda for Manchester United is a Europa League clash against Fenerbahçe, led by former United manager Jose Mourinho. Ten Hag sees this as a big game for both teams and admires Mourinho's winning mentality. He also believes that playing against top managers like Mourinho is a great learning opportunity for him.
In conclusion, ten Hag urges everyone to stay patient and see how the season progresses. He remains determined to lead Manchester United to more trophies and is confident that his team will continue to improve.
