His football reasoning has generally been similar to Pep Guardiola's and Johan Cruyff's. He gets a kick out of the chance to assault, to make things on the pitch.

 

Following him from PSV Eindhoven for quite a while when he was the associate supervisor there, similarly as he was Steve McClaren's right hand at FC Twente, He was instrumental at those clubs. He never attempted to push in however the chiefs were so dependent on him since he was strategically so solid. It was a delight for them to have him and that says a ton regarding him.

 

At the point when he was at Bayern Munich as their save group supervisor he cherished it. It was practically similar to a blessing from heaven for him to have a chief in Guardiola who was working the same way he needed to work. He told me once that he cherished investing energy with Guardiola, adored conversing with him. He needed to deliver players prepared for the main group as the hold director so that is the reason the entire set-up worked for him.

 

Players can find it hard with him since, as Guardiola, he seems to be a piece over the top. To get a style as you do at Ajax - Dutch Total Football, fundamentally - it needs bunches of work and loads of going after players. It leaves a ton of room and you need your protectors playing extremely high up. It involves a ton of hazard and you must be somewhat of a lunatic to ingrain in your players that each pass must be perfect, that there can be no mix-ups.

 

However, his man the board is superb and every one of his players say they have advanced such a huge amount from him.

 

While many mentors center around the main XI, Ten Hag will invest a unimaginable measure of energy on the preparation pitch. At Manchester United he won't simply focus on the headliners like Cristiano Ronaldo or Harry Maguire, he'll likewise go to the nineteenth or twentieth most significant player. He's assumed players with various personalities and he wouldn't fret how long he needs to enjoy with them, he will give all his chance to them.

 

That is where he gets the regard from the players since they see the work he places in to exclusively further develop them. Indeed, even with the individuals who have the most troublesome foundation - a stuff of some sort, perhaps - assuming that he thinks the ability is there he'll ensure they fit in.

 

He isn't frightened to take on the Manchester United work. In any case, he will need to be in a tracksuit numerous hours daily. He doesn't view himself as an office man - on the off chance that he did he'd have gone in to his father's organization. He would prefer not to be on the telephone to specialists continually. That is where he'll need a wearing chief or an aide with the capacity to do that.

 

For my purposes, it would be a slip-up for him to go down the course of reasoning aspect of his responsibilities is squeezing into the conventional English method of the executives.

 

He won't have any desire to go in there thinking he needs to assume the entire of Manchester United. He will need to zero in on giving the club a personality once more - and he will do that best by putting on a tracksuit.

 

Another potential issue is that Ten Hag has never felt that agreeable before the camera. That will be a test and he could find it challenging to make himself clear. In the event that he went to a German club - and there is not kidding interest there - he'd be absolutely in his usual range of familiarity since where he resides is on the German boundary. Everybody in that space has German as a subsequent language.

The degree of media examination at Manchester United could be really difficult for Ten Hag

English, notwithstanding, is everything except his usual range of familiarity and as I would see it a director who assumes responsibility for probably the greatest club on the planet situated in the UK, with all the exposure and media around him, ought to have the option to order the English language all around well. It won't prevent him from finding true success however it would help massively assuming he moved along. I comprehend he's been rehearsing his English a ton.

 

Toward the start of his experience with Ajax my own paper was extremely condemning of him in light of specific strategic decisions and the players found it difficult to become accustomed to his extremely lengthy instructional courses and meaningful conversations on the pitch.

 

Indeed, he fabricated a decent group yet by Dutch norms he was given great players. Prompt achievement was requested of him yet what dumbfounded individuals was the way Ajax played in the Champions League in 2018-19 against Real Madrid, winning 4-1 at the Bernabeu to take them out, and against Juventus in the quarter-finals.

 

Yet, maybe what intrigued the most was that when Ajax sold their best players, Matthijs de Ligt to Juve and Frenkie de Jong to Barcelona, he had given the club and the group such a character that it was simple for new players to fit in.

 

To be aware of his methodology then one reflection from the man himself may enlighten.

 

His golden calf was Dutch worldwide Epi Drost, who came from a similar region and same club as Ten Hag and was his mentor at FC Twente.

 

"Epi had a weakness for me since I was by a long shot the most youthful in the crew," Ten Hag reviewed. "He let me play in the U23 group as a 15-year-old. He was a uber devotee of skilful and daring football. He would animate innovativeness since that was the main part of the game. I advanced such a great amount off him."

 

Assuming I need to contrast him with somebody I'd compare him to Ronald Koeman. The two of them played as focal protectors, pioneers at the back who managed the game and the group from that position. As directors both seriously love Total Football yet Koeman has never needed to be pretty much as courageous as Guardiola. Assuming there is one major distinction between the Manchester City chief and Ten Hag, it is that the Dutchman has that equivalent somewhat more reasonable methodology that Koeman does. They have another eye on the protection than Guardiola would.

 

Individuals he works with at Manchester United will rapidly discover that he is an extremely faithful individual - that is one of his key attributes.

 

At the point when he began in the FC Twente foundation at around the age of 14, he was immediately climbed to the U18s and he played for a long time with similar folks, the greater part of whom remained mates with him despite everything are.

 

Be that as it may, while he was there two of his closest companions passed on, one in a plane accident in Suriname. Andy Scharmin, a kid who was bound to play for the Netherlands, was chosen for a presentation game by Suriname, who didn't have a conventional public group, and he decided to go. The plane he was on crashed and killed an enormous number of the group. He was one of Ten Hag's dearest companions - they did everything together. That was a gigantic upset in his life.

 

Another companion ended his own life, and a third experienced a terrible physical issue. Every one of the three had looked bound for a global profession. That impacted him a considerable amount and he attracted motivation from needing to succeed where his companions never had the opportunity to.

 

A ton came from the grievousness of losing his companions. That actually drives him on, even presently.
