"I am in a project and we are exactly where we want to be, we are on our way to constructing a team for the future. I will go with ups and downs," said Ten Hag.
"When I took over we were in a mess at United. The team is developing, the team is winning and at the end of the day it is about winning trophies and the team also plays to an identity. But you need the players to be available and need a strong squad in top football, especially when you play in England and Europe.
"The Premier League is so competitive so you need a very good squad and you need players available. There is still a lot of work to do but we are exactly where we are, we have value in the squad, high potentials progressing very good, the team is progressing and we are winning trophies.
"Two trophies in two years is not bad, three finals in two years is not bad. We have to keep going. I'm not satisfied with it, we have to do better and if they don't want me any more then I go somewhere else to win trophies because that is what I did my whole career."
On the idea of being sacked as an FA Cup winner, he added: "When I started here I said I am here to win and also I want to build a team and both I am doing but if they don't want me I go somewhere else and win games and win trophies."
