Manchester United yet again has dismally started the season. The Red Devils are currently 13th placed in the English Premier League (EPL) 2024/25 season. Out of the 6 games played in the league, they have won only two, drawn one, and lost the other three. The INEOS management in the summer transfer window did an excellent job. They brought in some top-quality footballers in the transfer window.
In the Europa League, the team has failed to win a single game so far in the competition. Erik Ten Hag has been under huge pressure after the dismal show of the team. The management has brought in the footballers that the Dutch coach needed to build a strong side on paper. Despite the likes of Joshua Zirkzee, Matthijs de Ligt, Noussair Mazraoui, and Manuel Ugarte. The side has consistently failed in the big stages.
On Thursday they bottled up a 2-0 lead against Porto in the UEFA Europa League game. The match ended in a 3-3 draw. Horrifying second-half performance from the side led to bottling up a 2-0 lead. There’s no excuse for Ten Hag to provide. He has been under fire from the fans. The management needs to sit and discuss with him and see the best outcome for the club.
Erik Ten Hag needs to change his rigid mentality
Will Erik Ten Hag step down as a coach if Manchester United continues to perform in such a manner? The 54-year-old will be sacked. If the Red Devils perform poorly in the next few games. The management might also been in search of a new manager. The news has not come out yet as it is done very privately and internally.
The Dutch coach has no tactics and a footballing brain. He is just simply making a team look like a school football team with no mentality or role clarity in the team. The footballers are taking the field just like they never want to win a game or play better football. The fans will not tolerate such a downfall of the team and will protest for the change of the manager.
