17-year-old Lamine Yamal compared to 18-year-old Manchester United star Leny Yoro
Manchester United have been praised for signing Leny Yoro who has drawn comparison to Barcelona wunderkind Lamine Yoro.
However, it had largely been more of the same with other post-fergie managers. The Dutch manager came close to getting the sack last season after leading the Red Devils to their worst finish in the Premier League era (8th); however, he turned his fortune around when he beat Manchester City to the FA Cup title.
What Ten Hag said
Speaking about his time at the club, Ten Hag expressed that he is happy with the work he has done so far. He explained that only Manchester City (four) have won more than their two trophies (EFL Cup 2022/23, FA Cup 2023/24).
However, he admitted there was still work to do to improve the team. Despite the cup successes, the Red Devils have been underwhelming in the league. They finished 3rd in Ten Hag’s first season in charge but dropped to an eighth-place finish in his sophomore year.
“Of course [I feel stronger after winning the FA Cup],” Ten Hag told The Times. “This club didn’t win trophies before I came for six years.
“In two years, after Guardiola, we won the most trophies in English football. So we are in a strong position. Look, we can beat every opponent. Not one time, more than one time against City and also against Liverpool.
“But the truth is that there is a long way to go, we have to be more consistent and we need to create a winning culture.
“It’s not only a dressing room winning culture; higher standards should be delivered across the whole club.”
