The defender of Ajax Amsterdam, Daley Blinddescribed the new coach of Man Utd, Erik ten Hagas a “control freak” and supported the Dutchman to restore success to the club if given the time and resources to establish his own style of play.
Blind, who spent four seasons at United before joining Ajax in 2018, has won three Eredivisie titles and two domestic cups with Ten Hag. “He’s very sociable,” he said on United’s website. “I think, at Ajax too, he knows that everyone at the club is important.
“He’s aware of that and wants to keep everything under control. He’s also a control freak and wants to be ahead of everyone. I think that’s a special quality you have to have when you’re that good.”
Ten Hag manages United after a dismal campaign under interim manager Ralf Rangnick, in which the team finished sixth in the Premier League and missing out on Champions League qualification.
United have not won a title since the Europa League in 2017 and while getting their hands on a trophy will be crucial for Ten Hag, he must first establish a clear style of play, Blind said. “I know this coach has quality and I hope he has the time to put everything in his way and make sure the team plays the way he wants.” “I’m confident it’s going to be successful.”
