ERIK TEN HAG has made it his mission to ensure that Manchester United bounce straight back from last season's turmoil.
That's the inside view from United goalkeeper Tom Heaton, on tour with the Red Devils in the United States.
After getting the green light to continue as Old Trafford boss, Ten Hag drastically revamped his backroom staff.
United legend and former PSV Eindhoven manager Ruud van Nistelrooy and Dutch top-flight boss Rene Hake have arrived in assistant-manager roles.
And now Ten Hag has appointed former Arsenal, Brentford and Southampton staffer Andreas Georgson as a first-team coach.
Jelle ten Rouwelaar, who worked for Vincent Kompany at Anderlecht and Burnley, is the new goalkeeping coach.
United ended last season in eighth place in the Premier League, their worst top-flight finish since 1990.
Heaton said: "We've put good foundations in and it's about stepping it on. We know eighth isn't good enough.
