Erik Ten Hag Must Stamp His Authority At MUFC ASAP – Scholes

Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes has come out to advise Erik Ten Hag as club manager. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, Ten Hag needs to stamp his authority at the club, and he must ensure his players are disciplined enough to play by his philosophy week in, week out.

Scholes added that he saw clips of the new boss yelling at his players at Ajax, and he believes this is what MUFC needs at the moment.

His words, “He expects hard from out of this group of players. They need that, he needs to stamp his authority on the club.”

“When people don’t go by his rules, don’t play the way he wants them to, and they just go onto the football pitch with no discipline and not playing to the philosophy that he expects, then I expect them to be gone. He seems to work that type of way.”

“I saw a couple of clips where he was at Ajax, having a go at a couple of players, which I thought ‘yeah, this is exactly what this club needs, this is what these players need’. He’s got a history of bringing in young players to a team as well.”

On players that can teach him the culture of the club, “That’s where the likes of him, the likes of Harry Maguire, they need to step up in the dressing room and explain whatever they’re doing in training, what’s happening on the training ground, just isn’t good enough. As we were by senior professionals as well when we came into the team.”

“You think of your Bryan Robsons, Steve Bruce, Roy Keanes. You had to work as if you were playing a game every single day, every single day.”

“The culture of the football club is wrong but it’s up to these experienced players to make sure the younger players are doing that. That’s why I say authority comes into it.”
