JAKARTA - Manchester United recovered as the trio of young players, Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho, and Kobbie Mainoo skyrocketed. They became the pillar of the rise of MU. However, Manager Erik ten Hag warned the young man not to be complacent.

MU got up and won glory when he had a row of talented young people. The team once had a young troop withering before developing in the Munich tragedy.

They are under the tutelage of legendary manager Sir Matt Busby so known as The Busby Babes.

Furthermore, when handled by Sir Alex Ferguson young people, such as Ryan Giggs, David Beckham, Paul Schholes, Gary, and Phil Neville, and Nicky Butt.

The Fergie Babes youth squad dominated the Premier League more than a decade. In fact, MU managed to break the Premier League title record 20 times.

Now, Hojlund's next generation of young players has emerged. Together with Mainoo and Garnacho, they showed their maximum performance by beating West Ham United 3-0. The position of the three of them when celebrating goals on a-board went viral.

They look compact. In fact, Hojlund admitted that he was indeed close friends with Mainoo, which is a genuine product of MU. Outside the arena, the two often go together.

The three of them are indeed pillars. Of the eight matches when Ten Hag lowered the trio, MU recorded five wins and only lost once.

Ten Hag said that Hojlund and colleagues began to spread threats to the opposing teams. However, he was not complacent with their development.

"They seem to really enjoy togetherness. This is their adventure. They are indeed dangerous," said Ten Hag.

"They are young and Manchester United's future will shine with talented players like them," he said.

However, Ten Hag also warned the young people. The coaches who also orbited young Dutch people, such as Matthijs de ligt, Donny van Beek, and Frenkie de Jong, while dealing with Ajax Amsterdam revealed that they still have to develop.

"They have to continue to develop their talents. There is still a lot of room to develop. This is what matters if you want to go to the highest level," said Ten Hag.

"This club is very ambitious. So, they must be able to level up and be more consistent. Against the best team, their game should not change either," he said.

Ten Hag's warning was specifically addressed to Mainoo. The 18-year-old defensive midfielder immediately skyrocketed when he entered the senior team. He also already gets a salary of 20 thousand pounds every week.

Now, the club plans to renew its contract. Mainoo, for sure, will get a double raise again.

Apart from the mainoo still, there are Shola Shoretire (20) and Omari Forson (19) who also have the potential to grow.

In the next match, they face a test that is not easy. MU played an away match against Aston Villa in the 2023/2024 Premier League continued at Villa Park. Villa will be a serious opponent after losing 0-3 to Chelsea in the FA Cup.
