Former Manchester United and Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has expressed doubts over Erik ten Hag's capacity to rejuvenate the struggling Manchester United side. Pique believes that the club's fortunes could improve if they place greater trust in their academy talents rather than relying on expensive signings. Despite a promising start under Ten Hag, Manchester United's form has deteriorated this season, with the team currently languishing in sixth place in the Premier League.
While United's recent FA Cup victory over Liverpool brought temporary relief, Pique remains unconvinced that it signals a significant turning point for Ten Hag's tenure. Pique, who experienced success at both United and Barcelona, emphasized the importance of continuity and direction for sustained success. He suggested that United lost their focus after the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson and have struggled to find their way back to the top ever since.
