‘I give you this week to pack your things and leave ‘: Manchester United New owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has officially told Erik Ten Hag to leave this week after a poor start this season

Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, is under increasing pressure as a result of their disappointing 3-0 loss to Tottenham.

Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke scored for United, who were defeated at home by a comprehensive score. Bruno Fernandes made an appearance just before halftime. Micky van de Ven’s brilliant solitary dash and cross resulted in Johnson’s goal, which the Old Trafford club conceded within three minutes. Fernandes was issued a direct red card for a late challenge on James Maddison as United were poised to enter the half-time break with a one-goal deficit.

That made the mission even more difficult for Ten Hag’s team, as they were 2-0 down moments after the interval. Kulusevski masterfully scored from close range. Solanke’s shot beyond Andre Onana in the 77th minute dealt United a knockout blow, despite the fact that they were beginning to settle into the game.

There were groans from the United faithful after the full-time whistle, and the match concluded with a score of 3-0. The defeat has resulted in United’s drop to 12th place, where they are currently trailing Brentford on goal difference. They have garnered only seven points from their first six Premier League matches. Additionally, Liverpool defeated them by the same scoreline four weeks ago, and they have since lost their last two home matches in the top division.

After United’s most recent ignominious loss, some have advocated for Ten Hag’s dismissal, while others maintain that he deserves additional time to reverse the situation. In light of this, the Manchester Evening News authors render their assessment of his future and decision to terminate his employment.
