Manchester United legend Paul Scholes wants Erik ten Hag to emulate Mikel Arteta when he joins United in the summer.
Ten Hag is set to become United's permanent boss when the season concludes, taking on the role from interim Ralf Rangnick.
Scholes, when asked about ten Hag's task ahead, suggested the Dutchman emulate the work of Arteta at Arsenal over the past few years.
He told talkSPORT: "It is certainly a big job for him, it is a big job for anybody. I suppose there is an element of risk about it and there will be about any manager that you might appoint.
"He has done really well at Ajax, I think he has got a really good pedigree, working with Pep at Bayern Munich as well. But he just has to believe in his methods. This job is 10 times the job of Ajax, we know they are the best team in Holland, and they always will be.
"Manchester United is a worldwide football club and he is going to have to take criticism at times because that's the way it is going to come. I think he has got a group of players who are talented but just has to get this group of players to believe in his methods, I think it is quite obvious that this group of players, with the last manager especially, haven't believed in what they have been coached and haven't believed in the way they have been playing.
"He has to be a tough manager, a little bit like Arteta at Arsenal, he has done a big rebuilding job and took no-nonsense. I think this manager has to be exactly the same."
