'Ten Hag has started to talk about his game model'
- Published
Erik ten Hag has started to talk about his "game model". He was at it again after last night's 7-0 win over League One Barnsley in the EFL Cup.
In the media, we assume he means tactics and a game plan, something Ten Hag has been criticised for not having during his time at Old Trafford.
The Manchester United boss was asked to clarify but his response was just as vague as the initial concept.
"It is a never-ending process," he said, before reeling off some positive aspects of his team and then saying his players need to work harder to get it all right.
United will not face many opponents more compliant than Barnsley, so the implementation of Ten Hag's game model, whatever it is, can only be measured against better opponents.
But there was certainly a lot of pointing going on in United's technical area last night and set-piece coach Andreas Georgson was making his presence felt.
Whatever the game model is, the former Lillestrom manager is a significant part of it.
