Wasn’t he brought in to implement that style? And wasn’t he given all that money to sign the players to implement that style? It’s kinda weird to say it can’t be done after 3 transfer periods.

United's 2 biggest and 'best' players in Rashford and Bruno simply cannot play possession-based football. That's not their strength. Ten Hag's issue is that he bought in some players precisely to play possession-based football (e.g. his new goalkeeper) but then also has players who can't cope with it (e.g. Maguire and Evans right in front of the GK).

United wanted Ole to create an attacking transition team, and from everything ETH has said this summer, he's trying to create the same thing.
