In the early morning of September 26, in the first round of the Europa League group stage, Manchester United drew with Twente at home, failing to secure a winning start. After the game, Dutch football legend Ruud Gullit shared his thoughts on the match.
He said: “Twente’s opponent is a Premier League team from the lower half of the table. Regardless of how they played today, there’s a reason for this. That goal was due to an individual mistake. But in terms of football… I’m not surprised by this, I see it every week. But it’s a process, isn’t it?”
Gullit’s colleague Theo Janssen (former Twente player) also wasn’t impressed. “The players have been playing under Ten Hag for three years. But the way they play, the way they apply pressure. I didn’t see anything. There’s no pattern. They just try to create something through individual player ability.”
Finally, Gullit added: “I feel sorry for him because I also hope he succeeds. But he really has only himself to blame. How much money did he spend for the club?”
