Regardless of shedding these first two aggressive video games, Ten Hag presently boasts the perfect win ratio of any Reds boss in historical past (70 per cent).
In fact, his 50 video games to date is a a lot smaller pattern measurement than Sir Alex Ferguson’s Herculean tally of 1,500 (59.67 per cent of which have been wins), or Sir Matt Busby’s 1,140 (50.53 per cent). And at this stage, nobody is evaluating his achievements to theirs.
However what we are able to confidently state, as truth, is that Ten Hag has made a greater begin to his United tenure than anybody else over their first 50 video games.
Sir Alex gained 22 of his first 50 video games; Sir Matt 26. Erik has gained 35 and was minutes away from a thirty sixth victory when Sevilla benefited from two personal objectives to attract 2-2 at Previous Trafford on Thursday evening.
If Erik’s present 70 per cent win ratio is maintained till the season’s finish, will probably be our highest common since 1905/06, when Ernest Mangnall led us to 31 wins from 42 video games (73.81 per cent). It is price declaring that 38 of these matches have been performed within the Second Division of the Soccer League (the opposite 4 got here within the FA Cup).
