The faltering league campaign got a much-needed boost from the win at Southampton, highlighting the critical need to develop a consistent winning habit.
Erik ten Hag cannot afford a repeat of last season, where Manchester United endured their worst finish in Premier League history.
If the same struggles from last season recur, even a domestic double might not secure his job. However, a notable improvement in one crucial aspect this season could potentially make his job easier, as he has pointed out himself.
Erik ten Hag’s ‘Nice Headache
Last season was plagued by a series of misfortunes at Old Trafford. From injuries and questionable referee decisions to individual errors, tactical issues, and off-field drama, it seemed like everything that could go wrong did. The season was ultimately salvaged by an FA Cup final win, but it was a forgettable campaign overall.
This year, however, Ten Hag observes a marked improvement in one key area where the team needed it most.
