"Because then you have to bring in players," Ten Hag told Sky Sports when asked why United could not play like Ajax."Frenkie de Jong and Casemiro, they would be really connected with each other. They would have been really complimentary with each other, absolutely. The Red Devils finished third in the Premier League during Ten Hag's first season while they also won the Carabao Cup, ending the club's six-year trophy drought.
