Ten Hag has said it’s impossible for us to play like his Ajax side as it’s ’not in our DNA’ and he’s built a side to play direct football.
‘We will never play the football we played at Ajax here,' he told ViaPlay after the defeat. 'I now have other players, that's not why I came here.'
'The player material you have determines how you will play. That's why we play here in a different way than I did at Ajax. That will have to be the case, because I can't play the same way here.
That is not in the DNA of Manchester United at all. The football at Ajax is very typical, here we will play much more directly. We also have the players for that, especially at the forefront.'
Thoughts? I saw a comment a few weeks ago that I thought was fake about his gameplan being Onana hoofing it to Rashford and Hojlund and now it would seem that is very much the plan.

Being direct would mean taking more risks playing it forwards, which we don't do.
