STEVE McCLAREN has hilariously revealed the one subject Erik ten Hag "won't like" him talking about. Former England boss McClaren , 63, was Ten Hag's assistant at Old Trafford for two years until this summer. It was his second stint at the club having previously worked as one of Sir Alex Ferguson's coaches between 1999 and 2001.
He left Man Utd to take the Jamaica national team job, drawing 0-0 with Cuba in his opening game before they beat Honduras 2-1 two weeks ago. Now he has reflected on his time back at the Theatre of Dreams, working under the manager who was his assistance at FC Twente 15 years ago. And McClaren admitted Ten Hag 's sartorial decision not to wear socks as part of his pitchside outfit is not something he would want discussed.
Speaking to The Telegraph , he said: "Well, that’s just fashion. Dutch fashion. "Don’t get me on to his fashion! He won’t like that.
" McClaren also spoke about the relationship he has with Ten Hag, insisting they are able to be brutally honest with one another. He added: "He’s great. He knows I don’t take him too seriously and he doesn’t take me too seriously.
