Contrary to clear arguments, the grounds are poor.

Manchester United will play West Ham United in the ninth round of the 2024/25 Premier League at the London Stadium in London on the 27th (local time).

He is coach Erik ten Hag (54) who is constantly being speculated about his future. While CEO Omar Verrada and General Manager Dan Ashworth have publicly expressed their support, some observers say that the team is continuing behind the scenes work to select the next head coach. Names such as Thomas Frank, Brentford, Sporting CP Hoobeng Amorim, Xavi Hernandez, former Barcelona coach, and Edin Terzic, former Borussia Dortmund coach seem to be mentioned.

However, Ten Hag said that he is the right man to lead Manchester United. In the case of Tottenham Hotspur (0-3), which lost heavily, he claimed that it should not be the yardstick for evaluation, as he was hamstrung by a bad referee. In other words, he did not feel any problems in other games. In fact, Ten Hag was criticized after the recent 1-1 draw with Fenerbahce SK, saying, "The draw with Porto and Fenerbahce is proof that Manchester United is not an easy team."

Then, let's look back on the match against Tottenham. Manchester United called in Tottenham at Old Trafford last month and lost 0-3 after a rough match. Despite not facing Son Heung-min, Tottenham's core resource, Manchester United had difficulty coping with counterattacks and dedicating goals one after another. Bruno Fernandes, who was belatedly tackled by James Maddison at the end of the first half, was sent off, but it is not considered to have had a direct impact on the result.

Not only that, but the team ranked 13th with three wins, two draws and three losses in eight Premier League matches this season. The team has not won a single match in the UEFA Europa League phase. Ten Hag is confident that his team will soon see an upward trajectory, saying, "The process is okay," but Manchester United has an even more important team with immediate results. Considering the enormous amount of money it invests in each transfer market, there is no excuse.

Ten Hag, who attended a press conference ahead of the match against West Ham, said, "The match against Tottenham is nothing short of null and void. Fernandez's exit was overturned after the match. To be honest, I ignore anyone who mentions the match against Tottenham. Considering the match is not a fair evaluation for the team. We did not get a chance to rebound (due to Fernandez's exit)," even though we had the potential to turn the game around. 메이저사이트

"Manchester United is a team full of winning mentality. We had no choice but to accept that Fernandez's departure was not the right decision," he said. British media outlet The Sun shook its head at Ten Hag's "out-of-body speech" that showed no sign of ending.
