From bad to worse

After a few weeks of speculation, in which everything indicated that Erik ten Hag, the brand new coach of an amazing Ajax during the last few seasons, would end up being Rangnick's replacement on the bench at Manchester United, the "Red Devils" club. ceased to be transcendent in Europe and in the Premier League for years and after some moderately competitive seasons with José Mourinho as his coach, they ended up firing the Portuguese for lack of results, incredibly, after Sir Alex Ferguson's long stay on the bench of Manchester United, no manager has been able to turn the club back into the competitive beast it was at the beginning of the last decade and into the historic England it was during all the campaigns in which the Scot was in charge of the team. The first to fail was David Moyes, directing 51 games and only raising the Community Shield in 2013, after his departure and 4 games managed by Ryan Giggs as interim, Louis van Gaal found himself with the tough mission of rebuilding the team, this, after The third place of the Dutch coach in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, van Gaal managed to extend his stay, twice as much as Moyes, but he did not have great successes either and only obtained the 2016 F.A Cup, which was enough for his dismissal.

Mourinho and the sparks of former glories

After the time of van Gaal, the historic José Mourinho took over the position, who surpassed the Dutchman as the coach with the longest tenure in the team after the departure of Ferguson and was the one who managed to win the most titles, winning the Europa League, the Cup of the Ligue and the Community Shield in the 16-17 season, without a doubt, with Mourinho, Manchester United was getting that much-needed oxygen, but after a disastrous blank season, the Portuguese was fired and the legendary Solskjaer, after a good run, ratified the Norwegian as permanent coach and lasted 3 years in charge, surpassing the longevity of Mourinho's mandate, however, Gunnar Solskjaer was not able to get a single title. Michael Carrick managed as caretaker for 4 games after Solskjaer was sacked and Ralf Rangnick came in to be able to "order", it didn't work and Manchester United is getting worse and worse.

Ferguson's success and a necessary change

Sir Alex Ferguson accumulated 38 titles in 27 years at the helm of the English team, in which he managed to conquer the unusual number of 13 Premier League, that is, almost 50% of all the English league championships disputed by Ferguson, had the Scotsman as the winner , in addition to winning the Champions League in the 1998/1999 season with the amazing comeback against Bayern Munich and the second in his career in the 2007/2008 campaign. It is precisely because of the success that Sir Alex Ferguson achieved for more than two and a half decades that the Manchester United coaches have been so criticized, who have been given the money and the availability of signings to put together a team that can return to dominate Europe, players such as Di María, Falcao, Paul Pogba, De Gea and even Cristiano Ronaldo in his second spell, have utterly failed in their mission to catapult Manchester United back to the top of the football world, a change was necessary, but a change to a different bet, not Mourinho's or Rangnick's football (no offense), a change to dynamism and offense like that of Ferguson's Manchester United, then, the managers looked at one of the most prodigious minds in all of Europe in this aspect, Erik ten Hag, the desired coach of Ajax.

Who is Erik ten Hag?

ten Hag, trained as a coach at Twente FC, a club in his country, where he managed to become assistant to the first team, then, after passing through Go Ahead Eagles, he became manager of the second team at Bayern Munich, in where he himself points out, he learned a lot from the Spanish coach, Josep Guardiola, in 2015 he came to Utrecht FC as coach of the first team. ten Hag managed to make the leap to Ajax where his game of direct attacks supported by midfielders (see the case of Dusan Tadic) led him to develop one of the greatest feats of the Champions League, going to the Santiago Bernabeú at a disadvantage and scoring to Real Madrid to advance to the quarterfinals, where they would get into Turin against Cristiano Ronaldo's Juventus and would also emerge victorious, in addition, we must remember that in the semifinals, the amazing Ajax (which of course is a historic but long ago not living his best years) was seconds away from a final that would have been one of the biggest surprises in the history of the Champions League.

If there is a man capable of putting Manchester United's chips in their place, it is ten Hag, I have not the slightest doubt that he will revolutionize the 2022/2023 season after his arrival on the bench of one of the biggest clubs in England, for his Unfortunately, everything seems to indicate that they will not play in the Champions League, but ten Hag's project looks like something huge, I longed for him to become coach of Juventus, but unfortunately it was not like that, let's see how he revolutionizes the hell of Manchester.
