Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has made significant tactical changes since taking over from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in December, and it appears to have paid off.

The Dutchman's first big move was to drop Bruno Fernandes into the centre midfield alongside Donny van de Beek and Scott McTominay, with the trio operating as a diamond formation. This change saw the Red Devils' midfield play more as a cohesive unit, allowing them to create more chances and control the game better.

Another key tactical adjustment that Ten Hag made was to shift Anthony Martial up front instead of Marcus Rashford. This decision allowed Martial to receive more support and create more space for himself, leading to him scoring seven goals in his last eight appearances.

Ten Hag also implemented a more pressing approach to the game, which saw Manchester United win more aerial duels and pressurise opponents more often. This led to more corners and free-kicks, which ultimately resulted in more chances for the team.

Overall, Ten Hag's tactical adjustments have had a significant impact on Manchester United's performance this season. The team has won four out of their last five games and is currently fourth in the Premier League table, just two points behind Liverpool and four ahead of West Ham United. With the likes of Ronaldo and Martial firing on all cylinders, there is no doubt that Manchester United will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming months.
