Former Manchester United captain Martin Buchan has been impressed by the work of manager Erik ten Hag.

He's impressed with how Fen Hag is sorting things out after the post-Sir Alex Ferguson demise.

"It is nice to see there is a manager in charge of the players now," he told the Daily Mail. "I was disappointed by some of the big names, it was more about them than the club. I am referring to Pogba and Cristiano.

"I think he has tarnished his legacy, Ronaldo, by his behaviour. Petulant behaviour, you know. Which is a shame because when I think back it was United players, Gary Neville, that went to Fergie and said you've got to sign this kid from Sporting Lisbon.

"He was a wonderful player but it went sour at the end. I am 74, I'd still be playing if I could, but father time pardons no man. It comes to us all. The secret is to know when to go."
