Amidst Manchester Unitedâs 2-2 draw against Bournemouth on Saturday evening, irate fans took to social media to demand Erik ten Hagâs dismissal from his managerial position.The Dutchman has faced considerable scrutiny in his second season at the helm, with United significantly trailing behind their rivals in the Premier League standings. The recent involvement of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos has only intensified the pressure on Ten Hag, as they now exert influence at Old Trafford.
As United found themselves trailing 2-1 against Bournemouth just before halftime at the Vitality Stadium, a despondent Ten Hag on the touchline prompted disgruntled supporters to call for his removal online.One fanâs message was straightforward: âSack Ten Hag now,â while another expressed vehemently, âIf we donât win this game, Ten Hag has to go.â Throughout the match, others echoed similar sentiments with the hashtag #TenHagOut.
Despite trailing at halftime, Ten Hagâs squad rallied to salvage a point, thanks to Captain Bruno Fernandes, who notched another goal from the penalty spot in the 65th minute.However, the drawn result does little to bolster Unitedâs quest for European football next season, as the stalemate on the south coast sees them languishing in seventh place at dayâs end.
While Ineos and Ratcliffe have remained tight-lipped regarding Ten Hagâs future, recent reports suggest that the former Ajax boss is included in plans for the upcoming season.Yet, uncertainty looms over whether this stance would shift should results continue to disappoint until seasonâs end. Various names have surfaced as potential replacements, including Gareth Southgate and Graham Potter.
Despite swirling speculation, Ten Hag brushed off concerns about his future last month, emphasizing his focus on the teamâs progress rather than external noise.âAt Man United, there will always be noise, rumors around the club, the manager, the players,â he stated in a press conference. âWe are focusing on the process, on the teamâs improvement, so I donât care about [it].â It sounds like Erik ten Hag is facing quite a bit of pressure from disgruntled fans despite his efforts to focus on the team’s progress. Managing a club like Manchester United always comes with intense scrutiny and high expectations.
