Carragher used Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp as examples, recalling their cut-throat approaches early in their successful reigns. And the ex-Liverpool defender suggested Ten Hag needs to make a head-turning decision ahead of his first season at Old Trafford.
“I think of Pep Guardiola and Klopp right now,” Carragher explained. “When Pep came into Man City, he just went, ‘Joe Hart, no’, and everyone was like, ‘wow, this is England’s ‘keeper, he’s been a great player for City’. But he was like, ‘no, you’re not here’.
“Klopp comes into Liverpool straight away, [and] they bought players under Brendan Rodgers in that summer. I think Benteke cost £35-40million, it was a few quid, a big centre-forward., [but Klopp said,] ‘no you’re not but me, out’. Making that big, bold decision straight away makes everybody sit up and take notice.”
