The Erik ten Hag era is firmly underway after the former Ajax manager delivered the first major trophy of his reign at Manchester United last weekend.
Casemiro and Marcus Rashford got the goals as the Red Devils saw off Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup Final before immediately setting their sights on further silverware in the Europa League and FA Cup. A late push for the Premier League title also remains a possibility as Ten Hag’s men wait for slips from the current frontrunners Manchester City and Arsenal.
But what comes next for Ten Hag and his United side? What changes will he make to his side once his first season in charge comes to a close and he oversees what could be another pivotal summer transfer window?
