Boyhood Manchester United fan Benni McCarthy named Erik ten Hag's new first-team coach MUFC
Now, though, the Dutch boss has made another addition with McCarthy reportedly tasked with, amongst other roles, helping forwards with their finishing and positioning.
In an interview with FourFourTwo back in 2017, McCarthy revealed he was admonished back in 2004 for his reaction to helping Porto beat the Red Devils in the Champions League. He netted twice in the 2-1 victory in Portugal before a 1-1 draw sent them into the quarter-finals of the competition. “I support Man United and always wanted to play for them,” he said. “I loved players like Mark Hughes, Andy Cole and Ryan Giggs.
“So I was heartbroken to score twice. My dream was to score once at Old Trafford, not to knock United out of the Champions League. I got hammered after the game by Jose Mourinho because I wasn’t very happy. He told me that if I didn’t cheer up then I’d never play in his team again.”1+ corner taken by each team in each half of all eight 3pm Championship games @ 40/1 –
