Ten Hag is justified to bench United star following teammates achievement

Manchester United fans have been intrigued by the impressive works of Erik Ten Hag at the club this season after a horrible last campaign that saw they fail to hit their season targets despite the impact of their star player.

The Red Devils squad has become a different team under the Dutch manager since he took over in the summer and has been very meticulous in administering his managerial skills to the club along with the help of his backroom staff.

The Dutchman carefully studied his squad's strengths and weaknesses, which gave him a better understanding of what he needed to improve on and address quickly in his squad shortly after joining in the summer.

Changes were made throughout the entire starting squad that saw the injections of fresh legs across  different areas of the squad. The changes provided many with the opportunity to earn a spot in the starting line, while others were ousted.

WHAT ACTION WAS JUSTIFIED IN RECENT DEVELOPMENT?

During the course of the changes to the starting lineup, Erik Ten Hag made the bold step of benching Club Captain Harry Maguire and backing the defensive duo of Raphael Varane and summer signing Lisandro Martinez. The preferred defensive pair made it to the World Cup final with national teams while Maguire crashed out in the quarterfinals with England. Lisandro Martinez's Argentina won the tournament in the end.
