Manchester United manager Erik ten Hach's confidence is soaring.

Manchester United, which is preparing for the 2024-2025 season in the United States, will play a friendly match against Arsenal in Inglewood, California, on the 28th (Korea time). Coach Ten Hag held a press conference before the friendly match on the 27th.

He succeeded in staying with a dramatic anti-war drama. Manchester United has never fallen below 7th in the English Premier League (EPL), but only ranked 8th last season.



His 14th loss is also the most. Manchester United's humiliation was also the biggest number of runs and negative goal difference. Ten Hag's replacement was also a given. But there was a big twist. The stage was the FA Cup final.

Coach Ten Hag revived by beating Manchester City 2-1 to lift the trophy. He presented Manchester United with the trophy for the second consecutive season following his first season in the League Cup.



After winning the FA Cup, Ten Hag strongly insisted "If they don't want me, I'll win it somewhere else" He said, `The challenge to win is something I've done all my life. I believe in myself. We had to wait for a very long time, but in the end, we were rewarded.'

Ten Hach's new season's project is 'survival of the fittest'. have a strong sense of pride I'm going to survive. He said "Now we're in a new season. We are looking forward to leaving everything behind. This season will be more of an era of survival of the fittest than ever before," he said. "There will be an 'up and down' this season, but now he is very energetic, and he has good dynamics and mentality. We will try and we want to win."



And "The burden on the players is too great. We're not the only team with a lot of injuries, and it wasn't the worst. But we were unlucky. Cracks in defence at the end of last season, lost a lot of points. However, it will be a new model for Europe."

Marcus Rashford and Mason Mount's revival was also certain. Rashford's form dropped significantly last season. Rashford scored a career-high 30 goals in the 2022-2023 season, but only eight goals last season.

Mount transferred from Chelsea for 55 million pounds (about 98 billion won) last summer. However, he only started five games in the EPL due to his injury.

Coach Ten Hag said "Rashford scored a lot of goals at a relatively young age. He can still do it. I am sure Rashford can do the same two years agoexpected "

On Mount also "When he gets healthy, he will be a very good player. The squad needs a certain type of player. Mount can play in a variety of positions, and I'm sure he'll help the team," he added.
