Can Bayern pair solve Manchester United’s defensive ‘problems’?

It should be a positive collaboration.

 

Following last Saturday’s 3-0 friendly defeat to Liverpool in South Carolina, Ten Hag remarked that United’s new management is “enthusiastic” about engaging in business.

 

New CEO Omar Berrada, sporting director Dan Ashworth, and technical director Jason Wilcox all observed the match from the Royal Box.

 

Nevertheless, it is clear that the 90 minutes, plus penalties, offered only a brief break from a busy summer.

 

“I am satisfied with the new [boardroom] arrangement,” Ten Hag mentioned. “We are collaborating effectively.”

 

Former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane told ITV: “The key for United is keeping their top players fit. The United squad is quite strong; if they can keep all their players healthy, I believe they will have a promising start to the season.

 

“I still think the manager would have preferred to see a bit more resilience to close out the game. You would expect United to contend for the top four if the players remain healthy.”
