It seems many Manchester United fans have run out of patience with Erik ten Hag as their manager after yesterday’s 3-1 defeat away to rivals Manchester City.
The Red Devils have lost both games against Man City in the Premier League this season, and in general there’s no disguising that the campaign is going pretty terribly.
Man Utd are currently sixth in the Premier League table and have a negative goal difference, while they also finished bottom of their Champions League group.
Ten Hag wasn’t necessarily expected to perform miracles straight away, but the Dutch tactician hasn’t really got much or any improvement out of this side since he took over last season.
Ten Hag losing trust of Manchester United fans
See below as a growing number of United fans on X, formerly Twitter, are clearly fed up with the former Ajax boss and calling for the club to make a change…
It will be interesting to see how much longer Ten Hag can hang on, but at the moment he seems to be losing a large chunk of the fan base.
With new owners also in place at Old Trafford, it wouldn’t be too surprising if they felt like revamping the whole club, with a new sporting director set to come in and perhaps have their own idea of who they’d like in the dugout.
Ten Hag did impressive work at Ajax but this has arguably looked like too big a step up for him, and there might well be better options out there, such as Roberto De Zerbi at Brighton, Ruben Amorim at Sporting Lisbon, or former Chelsea Champions League winner Thomas Tuchel, who is confirmed as leaving Bayern Munich at the end of the season.
MUFC surely need to improve very quickly if Ten Hag is to stand any chance of keeping his job.
