Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been praised by Dutch great Rafael van der Vaart.

Van der Vaart feels Ten Hag has transformed United since taking charge.

After their FA Cup win against Reading, Van der Vaart told Ziggo Sport: "I never expected what he has already done.

"The whole club was really on its a**. And now they matter again."

However, Van der Vaart also stated United would not challenge Arsenal and Manchester City in this season's title race.
