Besides from Hojlund, I don’t know who United or Ten Hag have bought for the future recently. They have bought established international players.
You look at Peps and Klopp signings. They have generally bought players who play for a team. United over the years have bought individuals. Some players even forced on to managers and some kept when the manager didn’t want them.
Would Klopp allowed a player like Pogba to join? Because he wouldn’t have had a choice. Van Gaal said United only focused on the commercial aspect when it came to some signings. How would Klopp have dealt with that if he was United?
At United you are not only managing a footballing side, you have to also put up with the brand and commercial side of things.
