<\/p>\nThe new boss has been seen in video clips posted by United implementing his style of play<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The new boss will get to put his plans and ideas into action when he takes charge of his first match against fierce rivals Liverpool in a pre-season friendly in Bangkok, Thailand this afternoon.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Portuguese international Fernandes, who will be a key part of Ten Hag’s Red Devils revolution, has admitted it has been intense but the entire squad is flourishing under the challenge.<\/p>\n
‘It’s been pretty intense,’ Fernandes told the\u00a0United club website.\u00a0‘He (Ten Hag) likes intense training, reactions when you lose the ball. He likes everyone to run. He’s been really good.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThe Portuguese international has admitted the entire squad is enjoying Ten Hag’s training<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
‘Everyone is enjoying [it], obviously. Everyone gets really tired at the end of the training but that’s what we have to do.’<\/p>\n
The 27-year-old added:\u00a0‘We have to be like that at the end of the training, but then you know the training was really good.<\/p>\n
‘As I said, we have to do the hard work because, if we do it now, then we will be fit for the beginning of the season.<\/p>\n
‘We all know the first games of the season are strange, but we want to be the ones that will be winning.<\/p>\n
‘We have to do the maximum that we can and what the coach and all the staff ask us to do.’<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\nThe 27-year-old also believes putting in the hard work now will help them during the season<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Pre-season is typically about building up fitness and working on new strategies, but Fernandes is still determined to get one over Liverpool at the Rajamangala Stadium.<\/p>\n
‘We know what that kind of game means to our fans,’ Fernandes admitted.<\/p>\n
‘Obviously, this is the first game of pre-season but anywhere you want to win, and you want to win these kind of games too, even if it’s a friendly match.<\/p>\n
‘As I said many times, we can never have a friendly match. As much as it doesn’t count for points or going through some stages, at the same point, we want to win the game.<\/p>\n
‘Obviously, we want to get the shape and start to do what the coach asks of us.’<\/p>\n
United have only signed one player so far this summer, defender Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord, who is expected to feature in the friendly.<\/p>\n
The Red Devils continue to be linked with a number of high-profile players, including Christian Eriksen and Frenkie de Jong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
