Erik ten Hag ends his Man Utd interviews with the same word every time and fans are baffled

Ten Hag's been in England for a few months now.

Fans have noticed Erik ten Hag ends every interview as Manchester United manager with the same word.

The 52-year-old is a reserved character, with many wondering how he would adapt after taking the United job over the summer.

In the last few weeks, ten Hag has started to cut a more relaxed figure in post-match interviews and open up more about his team and methods.

Everyone's picked up on his mannerisms now as well. One, in particular, has managed to leave many scratching their heads.

Twitter user @tenHagExtra has figured out ten Hag says 'please' when presenters are bringing their interview to a close.

The first time ten Hag appears to have done it is following a 6-3 defeat to Manchester City last month. Since then, he's said it after victories over Omonia Nicosia, FC Sheriff and Real Sociedad in the Europa League, in addition to Premier League showdowns with Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.

Check out the video below for evidence.

The reason, per popular Dutch Twitter user TheEuropeanLad is due to a translation error. The direct translation in Dutch is 'alsjeblieft' which means 'no problem' in their dialect.

At least it proves ten Hag has manners. The clip has gone viral on social media, with many only just realising it themselves.

One person commented: "I love him so much for this."

A second put: "This is quite adorable."

Someone tweeted: "Ten Hag is so likeable already but this makes him even better."

While another commented: "I’ve been wondering if I heard him correctly."

United are on a nine-match unbeaten run and started this weekend fifth in the Premier League table.

Victory over Aston Villa on Sunday in addition to other results going their way could see them move into the top four.

It's been a remarkable turnaround under ten Hag, given United were bottom of the table after losing their opening two fixtures to Brighton and Brentford.

Since then, their only league defeat came to bitter rivals City.
