Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is delighted with the coaching team he's assembled.
Van Gaal has hailed the impact of his assistant Albert Stuivenberg.
Ryan Giggs, opposition scout Marcel Bout and goalkeeping coach Frans Hoek were all appointed on the same day as Van Gaal.
On Stuivenberg, Van Gaal told the Manchester Evening News: "I have worked with Albert now for only one year and that is peculiar for me.
"Normally with my coaches I always have a long-standing relationship with them, but he has so much talent this boy.
"I picked him up in the Netherlands Federation, he was my coach for the under-21s and worked as my scout in the World Cup.
"He did a remarkable job and that's why I want to reward him to be my assistant here as a coach. He has made a fantastic impression on me but also on the players, that's much more important I think. But I have only known him for one year."
Alongside Stuivenberg, Giggs, Bout and Hoek, Van Gaal has also appointed Jos van Dijk as his training physiologist and Max Reckers as performance analyst.
And he says Reckers, who he calls 'a son', has been impressed with the structure already in place at Carrington.
Van Gaal said: "Max collects all the data that we need. We have a lot of data because at United there was already a philosophy that you have to measure everything and it's called the sport science department.
"It's unbelievable what kind of data they have and I'm very pleased that kind of support is already arranged in Manchester.
"They have supported us very well, not only in sport science but also the medical department and the kit men. It's unbelievable what organisation you have to make for such a big group at such a big club."
Van Dijk, meanwhile, has been responsible for the new training drills introduced this summer.
Van Gaal added: "He writes my programmes, he has also been working with me since I was at AZ.
"We have a very good relationship and it is very important to write the programmes that the trainer has to do.
"It always has to be progressive because it's important that your players are not injured because of the preparation.
"Until now, we are doing great but we've only had a few days working with the players."
