Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag has come out to say that he is confident that he can succeed at the club. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, despite being handed the mammoth task of rebuilding the Old Trafford team as soon as possible with little time to prepare, he is very convinced that he would get it done in the end.
Ten Hag added that the process will surely take time and new players will be needed to speed things up.
His words, “I’m convinced I’ll get it done – I did it everywhere,”
“I cannot ask the fans to be patient – I hope they will be – because they want to see a winning team and that is why I am here, but I have to produce it.”
“But the process takes time, it is what it is.”
“We definitely need more players to get into the season, that is clear, we need a stronger squad in the midfield and offensive departments,”
“As you saw last week when Martial was out, we did not have a good replacement and then we struggled.
“So, you need that [squad] depth when you have injuries and games every three days and players are not recovered to play the next game.”
“It is a big challenge and we knew that before. It takes time, but in football you do not have time and that is what makes it such a big challenge.
“It is 10 years ago [United last won the Premier League] and success goes quickly, but to get it back takes a long time and you need a lot of work, a good strategy, the right people and that is what we are working for day by day.”
