After meandering through games at the end of a woeful 2021-22 season, the Red Devils have been revitalized since the appointment of the meticulous Dutchman in the summer.

Ten Hag has brought about a significant shift in quality and culture at United, who acquired their first silverware in six years after defeating Newcastle in Sunday’s Carabao Cup final.

They overcame Barcelona to make it to the last 16 of the Europa League last week and then came from 1-0 down to defeat West Ham 3-1 and reach the FA Cup quarter-finals on Wednesday night.

Brazilian midfielder Fred, who scored in the triumphs over Barca and the Hammers, articulated: ‘We have had a good season, a good season for myself.

‘It’s crucial to score and to help my team-mates. It’s a good season and we need to keep it going.

‘It’s hard to say.Erik ten Hag brings a multitude of things with him. He brings energy into the dressing room, now we keep playing in our home, we have a place to play. I don’t know what’s different. It’s the same players but a different mentality.’ When asked if United were a more assured side than previously, Fred responded: ‘Everything. Like today, we were 1-0 down, every moment we have faith, we believe. We have the mentality, it’s important to keep this mentality to win trophies.’

United will require that psychological strength at Anfield on Sunday when they play Liverpool. The coming of Casemiro has been decisive and Fred said of his fellow Brazilian: ‘I adore playing with Casemiro. He’s a big leader, he talks a lot with us, with every player, every day. He is attempting to work on his English as well. He has a great attitude in the dressing room. Casemiro, he won a lot of trophies in Real Madrid. He’s a significant part of our squad.’
