Of course, the Dutchman will put little value on results at this point in proceedings and their opponents were nowhere near full strength, but he must have been pleased with what he saw from his team.

The next stop on their pre-season tour is Australia, and Friday sees them take on Melbourne Victory at the MCG.

That will be of little interest to ten Hag, of course, who will be fully focused on his team and want to see more of the work they've put in on the training ground reflected on the pitch.
