Man United stars want Eik ten Hag to change his tactics

Having failed to pick a single point in their opening matches, United players now want their manager to change his tactics when they play Jurgen Klopp's charges.

According to Metro UK, Ten Hag arrived with a clear idea of the tactics that he wanted to implement, including replicating the management style that brought him success at Ajax.

However, United have looked ill-equipped to carry out the Dutchman's style of football, a situation which has seen several players urge him to take a more pragmatic approach against Liverpool.

It has been claimed that key among the changes Ten Hag could make is dropping captain Harry Maguire from his starting XI.
