Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has applauded Benni McCarthy's coaching skills, saying he is the team's “scoring trainer”.He said McCarthy's impact was positive, outlining how he needed his expertise in the striking department.“I wanted also to find a good balance. He is offensive [minded] as he is a former striker and that is also a really specific job task in the team.”
He explained the role given to McCarthy, crediting him for contributing to the sense of togetherness within the squad. “I never played there [striker], so I’m lucky to have someone in my staff who played there. Football is about scoring and you have a goalkeeping specialist, but you also have offensive specialists and, in particular, we have a specific scoring trainer.
“He has to add that, in details, working and for the rest of us, he has a relationship to all the players in our squad. He also has to work on the togetherness and he is doing a great job on that,” said Ten Hag.
