Ruud van Nistelrooy's presence at Manchester United will not be lost on Erik ten Hag as the former Ajax boss comes under increasing pressure
Manchester United are entering another weekend of Premier League action with yet more questions over Erik ten Hag's future.
One other factor which may be adding to the ever-growing pressure on United's under-fire manager is his assistant, Ruud van Nistelrooy. The former United striker arrived this summer as part of a backroom shake-up. Arteta has since turned the Gunners into not only a top-four regular but Manchester City's closest title challengers. It wasn't all plane sailing with several eighth-placed finishes early on.
We've already seen Ten Hag come under pressure after one season in eighth, despite United having won two trophies in two years under the Dutchman. If the Reds were to be patient with a manager though who showed clear progression in performances, they may finally get closer to Omar Berrada's vision of a league title in 2028.
