🚨⚽SHOCKING NEWS: Coming Live from Old Trafford, pressure turned on at old Trafford as sir Alex Ferguson as reveals the latest concerning Erik ten hag in an interview. Two defeats in the opening three matches of the Premier League campaign have prompted calls for Erik ten Hag to be relieved of his duties – just three months after INEOS affirmed their faith in the Dutchman. He said, “Do I think the manager will be there at the end of the season? No, I don’t. I think he’ll be gone by Christmas. When you’re finishing eighth in the Premier League, that’s quite clearly not good enough for Man United. Full stop. End of story for me. You’ve got to change what’s going on,” Ten Hag is just not good enough says Alex Ferguson.

Two defeats in their first three Premier League games have led to calls for Erik ten Hag’s dismissal as Manchester United’s head coach, just three months after INEOS publicly backed him.

United’s start to this season mirrors the erratic performances from the previous one. A shaky opening-day win over Fulham, which covered deeper problems, was similar to their unconvincing FA Cup final triumph in May. That win had convinced Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his partners to maintain faith in Ten Hag.

Nevertheless, defensive errors contributed to a 2-1 loss to Brighton & Hove Albion, where Ten Hag was tactically outdone by 31-year-old manager Fabian Hurzeler. Last weekend’s defeat to Liverpool further damaged United’s hopes, as Arne Slot’s side comfortably secured three points. These results leave United in 14th place heading into the international break.

Former United star and treble winner Teddy Sheringham recently voiced his concerns about the club’s situation, doubting that Ten Hag would stay in his position past the holiday season.

Sheringham: Ten Hag ‘not the right fit’ for United

Speaking to Ladbrokes, as cited by footballwave, Sheringham criticized the Dutchman, stating, “If you finish eighth in the Premier League, that’s clearly not acceptable for Manchester United. Full stop. Changes are necessary.”

He added, “The inconsistency from last season has continued into this one. There’s no progress in the way Ten Hag wants the team to play. Different players, but no real shift in philosophy or performance. I don’t enjoy seeing anyone lose their job, but Ten Hag isn’t the right fit for United.”

Sheringham concluded by expressing his belief that Ten Hag won’t remain manager until season’s end, stating, “Do I think he’ll still be here by the season’s conclusion? No, I believe he’ll be gone by Christmas.”

Manchester United’s start to the Premier League season has sparked significant criticism and concerns about Erik ten Hag’s future as head coach. After losing two of their first three games, questions have arisen regarding his ability to lead the club, despite backing from INEOS just a few months ago.

United’s erratic performance echoes last season’s inconsistencies. A narrow opening win over Fulham masked deeper issues within the squad, much like their unconvincing FA Cup final win that kept faith in Ten Hag from figures like Sir Jim Ratcliffe. However, recent defeats to Brighton & Hove Albion and Liverpool have exposed defensive vulnerabilities and tactical shortcomings. A 2-1 loss to Brighton saw Ten Hag outmaneuvered by young manager Fabian Hurzeler, while Liverpool’s dominant performance left United languishing in 14th place going into the international break.

Former United star Teddy Sheringham has openly criticized Ten Hag’s tenure, suggesting he is “not the right fit” for the club. Speaking to Ladbrokes, Sheringham expressed his concerns about the team’s lack of progress, stating that finishing as low as eighth is unacceptable for a club like Manchester United. He highlighted the ongoing inconsistency and the absence of a clear tactical philosophy under Ten Hag, indicating a lack of improvement despite changes in the squad. Sheringham predicted that if the situation does not improve, Ten Hag could be dismissed by Christmas.

These comments reflect growing dissatisfaction among fans and pundits, underscoring the pressure on Ten Hag to turn things around quickly to secure his position at the club.
