The beginning of a winning era: Donny van de Beek Erik Ten Hag Reunion to Propel Man Utd to Champions League Glory.
Mind you, if big flops like Harry Maguire all become superstars under ten Hag’s reign; anything can happen. Give him a few seasons and Pep Guardiola protege ten Hag could earn up lifting the ultimate European silverware.
Is Manchester United still in the Champions League? Sky Sports Gary Neville called Manchester United’s Champions League exit to Atletico Madrid “miserable” but said it was no surprise they were knocked out by the Spanish Atleti side and criticised the home team’s approach at Old Trafford.
How Donny van de Beek Erik Ten Hag Reunion Could Propel Man Utd to Champions League Glory
Donny van de Beek has been tipped to shine again. When Ten Hag was confirmed to be United’s next manager, we doubt anyone was happier to hear that news than Van de Beek.
Van de beek spent two-and-a-half years working under Ten Hag at Ajax and his impressive performances saw him become a Ballon d’Or nominee in 2019.
He then completed a £36million move to United in 2020 but started just four Premier League games during his first 18 months at Old Trafford and is currently on loan at Everton.
“Take Donny. I find that hard, a mortal sin,” Ten Hag told De Volkskrant in December 2021. “If you haven’t had a chance yet, then development will also stall.”
The 25-year-old will now be hoping to rediscover his Ajax form under Ten Hag and finally kick-start his career as a United player.
He’ll also have the opportunity to fill the void left by Paul Pogba, who looks set to leave United when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Ten Hag’s plan for Marcus Rashford
Man Utd players like Rashford play with very little proper anticipation of what their teammates are doing! There’s no unity with the players, to each other, plus they do not have an “attack” mentality as in the old days. And why are they always “cramped” when in control of the ball? They need to spread the defenses, not invite them in!!! Yeah, even more than this! Best wishes to our new Gaffer!
When Rashford burst onto the scene and netted twice on his United debut at the age of 18, he had the world at his feet and was regarded as the next big thing.
But six years later, Rashford’s career has stalled, and he has scored just five goals in all competitions in 2021-22.
The England international has struggled for opportunities under interim manager Ralf Rangnick and has been linked with a move away from Old Trafford but is reportedly looking forward to working with Ten Hag.
During his time at Ajax, Ten Hag has shown a preference for inverted wingers who can cut inside and the likes of Antony, Hakim Ziyech and Dusan Tadic have all thrived under him.
“Every player under his guidance becomes a better footballer through his training,” Antony told Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf. “Since my arrival, he has given me a lot of confidence and believed in what I can do.
“I am grateful to him for that. I respect him very much.”
Rashford will be hoping to make similar progress under Ten Hag and get his United career back on track.
