I’m Not Thinking About Sack – Ten Hag

Erik ten Hag insists he is not worried about being sacked after Manchester United’s miserable start to the season.

United produced a dismal first-half performance in Sunday’s 3-0 home defeat to Tottenham to leave them on seven points after six Premier League games.

Bruno Fernandes was sent off just before the break, but the team’s worst spell arguably came when they had 11 players on the pitch.

Gary Neville said the first half was the worst he had seen United under the current manager in his Sky Sports podcast.

However, Ten Hag, into his third season at the club, is confident that United’s decision-makers will give him time.

Asked about his future, Ten Hag said: “No, I am not thinking about this. We all made together this decision to stay together, as an ownership, a leadership group in the summer, also we made the decision from a clear review what we have to improve and how we want to construct a squad.

“But we knew it will take some time, how the window went, some players late in like Ugarte. Also, we have to make some improvement in organisation, some injuries, we need some time.

“We are all on one page or in one boat together, the ownership, the staff and the players as well. I don’t have that concern.”
