Ten Hag's United resemble a rudderless rabble that plays with all the togetherness of a start-up squad cobbled together from a newspaper adTen Hag watched his side struggle to beat lowly Sheffield United on Wednesday . He needed to be. United were behind twice to a Sheffield United team adrift at the foot of the Premier League and bound for the Championship.

The clipped defiance he revealed in response to criticisms ofunderpinned his pre and post-match behaviours here, starting with a bizarre show of bonding with the Stretford End, emerging from the tunnel and walking 20 paces towards the goal whilst clapping his hands above his head.
