Manchester United fans all over the world are still celebrating Erik Ten Hag’s recent Carabao Cup victory. The Dutch manager has only been in charge of the club for a short time, but his influence has been enormous. United’s cup success has been hailed as a sign of progress, and Ten Hag’s leadership style has been lauded for instilling a winning mentality and fostering a strong team culture.
Ten Hag was quick to point out after the game that the Carabao Cup victory was only the beginning. He emphasized that the team should not be satisfied with just one trophy and that they must continue to strive for greater success. “We are moving in the right direction,” he said, “but this has to be the inspiration, and the motivation to keep going, to continue on this pathway, and to improve.” We can only be happy for 24 hours, and we must avoid being satisfied because satisfaction leads to laziness. “And when you’re lazy, you don’t get any more victories or trophies.”
Ten Hag’s message was simple: Manchester United must stay focused on the task at hand while keeping their eyes on the prize. The team cannot afford to become complacent, as this will be their undoing. “The focus must be on the job,” Ten Hag said, “and 100% focus is required to achieve the desired results.”
Since Ten Hag took over the team, United fans have been impressed with his approach. Many of the players have already improved as a result of his emphasis on a winning mentality and team culture. “The most difficult thing to change at a football club is the culture,” said one observer, “but Ten Hag has managed to instill confidence and a winning mentality in the team.”
Despite their success on the field, Manchester United’s future remains uncertain. There have been bids from Sir Jim Radcliffe and Qatar to buy the club, but Avram Glazer, one of United’s current owners, was spotted in the director’s box during the Carabao Cup final. After the game, Ten Hag was asked about Glazer’s attendance, and he confirmed that the owner was “really happy” and “wants to be a part of it.”
Glazer was also photographed in the Wembley tunnel after the game with legendary former manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Between 2005 and 2013, Ferguson spent his final eight years at United under Glazer’s ownership, winning the League Cup three times. United shared a photo of Ten Hag with Sir Alex and the trophy on social media, with fans expressing their admiration for the legendary former manager.

Manchester United’s future appears bright under Erik Ten Hag‘s leadership. While the club’s owners and ownership structure remain unknown, the team’s recent Carabao Cup success is a sign of progress and a reason for fans to be optimistic. As Ten Hag stated, the team must remain focused on the task at hand and continue to work hard in order to achieve further success. Manchester United can look forward to a bright future under his leadership and with the support of the fans.
