    Man United boss Erik ten Hag praised by his players for being ‘most fashionable’

    MANCHESTER United boss Erik ten Hag is a title winner in the fashion stakes, according to his players.The Dutchman, 53, has been praised for his tailored suits and waistcoats — and his fondness for flat caps has seen him likened to hit TV gangsters The Peaky Blinders.

    His stylish look is a far cry from the “club shop chic” of rival Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, who prefers team-crested gear and a baseball cap.
    And ex-Leeds manager Jesse Marsch often wore jeans on the sideline.
    Some Man United staff were said to have been heard commenting on how “sharp” ten Hag looked as he left the hotel ahead of the club’s recent FA Cup semi-final win against Brighton.
    A club insider said: “The manager is always turned out so well, whether it’s his beard or his clothing. We joked he could be a Peaky Blinder with his flat cap.

    “It’s a far cry from [ex-manager] Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his tracksuits. We’ve even seen the gaffer at the training ground wearing tweed — all he needed was the shotgun.”
    The former Ajax manager lifted silverware for the Red Devils earlier this year, dispatching Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United 2-0 in the final of the League Cup at Wembley.
    United lost away at Brighton on Thursday in the Premier League and face West Ham on Sunday.

    Berbatov joined the Red Devils in 2008 for a £30million fee and went on to score 56 goals in 149 appearances, helping the club to two Premier League titles.
    The Bulgarian was able to effortlessly influence games and this charisma continued off the pitch.
    He would often turn up to training looking chic, but would be left unimpressed with his team-mates’ style.
    He told BT Sport’s What I Wore: “When I was going to the training session, I was dressing myself as if I was going to my prom.

    “With the jeans, with the shirt, with the shoes.
    “Everyone was watching me, probably laughing at me because, for example, [Wayne] Rooney was coming with the flip flops into training and the shorts.
    “And here is me next to him with my shirt and blazer.
    “This transitioned onto the pitch where I wanted to look good with the shirts.”

    He slammed Tottenham’s 2006/07 home shit as an “ugly” shirt and revealed he offered to design the kits.
    He added: ” “I was saying this to everybody when I was playing at [all] my teams, ‘Who is designing this shirt?! Who is designing our suits? I don’t like them. Put me in charge!'”
