Two amazing stats highlight how big Ten Hag's impact on Man United squad has been
Erik ten Hag is leading a massive turnaround in Manchester United's fortunes just seven months into the job.
Man United seem to be going into every game bolstered by a feeling that, regardless of the opponent, the team will get a win.
That might not just be a feeling because with the win over Barcelona on Thursday night, United have now racked up 28 wins in all competition this season.
There is no other team in Europe with more wins.
Another incredible stat, that is more indicative of Ten Hag's tactical acumen, is that United have scored 19 goals this season through substitutes coming off the bench.
Again, that is more than any other team on the continent.
So, even though United fans must tread with cautious optimism as the phrase "United are back," has only ever led to disappointment since Fergie left, there is finally tangible evidence of the resurgence being led by Ten Hag at the helm.
A win on Sunday and United will have their first trophy in five years.
