Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United suffered a 4-0 defeat against Crystal Palace
Has Erik ten Hag lost the Manchester United dressing room?
According to a leaked report, Erik ten Hag has lost the confidence of Manchester United players in the dressing room. This comes after the Red Devils suffered a dancing 4-0 defeat against Crystal Palace in the Premier League. As per the report, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is skeptical of giving Ten Hag his vote of confidence as a result of the devastating loss at Selhurst Park.
As a result, Ten Hag’s position at the helm next season is doubtful. That has reportedly made it difficult for the Dutch manager to get his tactical instructions across to the players during matchdays and also in training. Manchester United have now lost 13 Premier League games this season and are currently eighth in the league table with 54 points from 35 matches.
United could also make an unwanted record of getting their worst finish of the Premier League era this season. Their current worst finish is seventh, under David Moyes in 2013-14. The Red Devils scored 64 points that season, a tall they won’t be able to reach this season.
