Yesterday was a big game. Arsenal is always an important game. After losing the first two games, things really looked bleak. But we built momentum. 3 wins in a row. Arsenal also had a great start to the season. 5 wins in a row. The stage was set.
This was one of those games where Erik Ten Haag showed how he is doing things differently than other managers at United. Over the last decade, there have been so many managers at United. Everyone had their own philosophy but no one ended up building a proper team. We were always a mixture of good and bad. We never played like a team.
But ever since Ten Haag joined, United looks more united, literally. The players are working hard together. They are running together. They are playing more like a team. This was missing since Sir Alex left. Although it’s still not perfect, but it looks so much better.
The win against Arsenal was one of the most important victories of the season. This was a real test for Ten Haag given the form of Arsenal. But went for it and passed the test with flying colors.
There’s so much more to come. But the past four wins are so important.
