Erik ten Hag has made a brilliant start to life as Manchester United manager, winning his opening three matches with an aggregate score line of 11-2.
United kicked off the new era with a 4-0 victory against Liverpool in Bangkok before beating Melbourne Victory 4-1 and Crystal Palace 3-1 upon arriving in Australia.
They are only pre-season friendlies and Liverpool and Palace did not play their strongest sides, but they are impressive results nevertheless.
The wins have been made more eye-catching due to their context. Ten Hag is currently without Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been left behind due to family reasons, while he also doesn’t have his number one transfer target, Frenkie de Jong.
