Ten Hag intends to use the two-week break to continue working in the training field. “It’s quite handy. We have a lot of meetings, and we need to improve the infrastructure in and around the club,” he remarked following the Sheriff’s victory.
“By establishing plans, we will also look to the window in January or next summer to better our method of playing.” Of course, these intervals occur after a game, but we must be prepared for them, and many players, let’s say 90%, are away. But for the others, we will train correctly, and for the remainder, we must prepare thoroughly. I’m hoping that everyone stays fit and healthy until we can launch an attack.”
After the break, United will have a difficult test when they travel across town to face rivals Manchester City in the derby on October 2. They will next return to the road, flying to Cyprus on October 6 to face Omonia in the Europa League.
