Erik Ten Hag should have deserved to be fired, especially since Manchester United's performance this season has been very disappointing. Even this season, finishing in 8th place and only collecting 60 points was the worst record since the David Moyes era.
To be honest, I am not a supporter of The Red Devil or even a fan of Erik Ten Hag. However, from my point of view, the decline in Manchester United's performance is not solely the fault of the coach. As we know, United is experiencing several internal problems within the club. such as conflicts between coaches and players, quite a few players return to the treatment room due to injuries. plus, some players are too selfish and undisciplined. Even though in several United matches Ten Hag made mistakes, he is actually a coach who upholds discipline and playing with a teamwork system. Unfortunately, this season what he planned did not go according to his expectations and neither did the Red Devil fans. It would be very natural if a wave of protest and disappointment came to him to immediately dismiss him as MU coach. Regarding Ten Hag's future, to be honest I haven't checked the latest news or you could say I haven't monitored all activities related to football developments. Maybe Ten Hag will be retained and given a chance. yeah, this is just my assumption. because currently there are not many coaches who are worthy enough to be brought to Old Trafford and immediately lead United to major changes. However, let's just follow it, Ten Hag could be fired or he might be retained.
Even though Ten Hag might seem like a good coach, he definitely had some favoritism when recruiting certain players for Manchester United. I think that is what has let down Manchester United. If you have any bias for any player while recruiting, if you think that you are going to bring in a player because you just like him, more because he's going to be better for the squad, you cannot be a good coach and you are not making the right decisions. And that has not been the case with only him. The coaches before him also did similar things.
If we look at the final results that Man United had, which could only finish in 8th place, it is very natural that we all think that Erik ten Hag was unable to bring about good changes at the Man United club and instead made it worse than in previous seasons. Last season, perhaps he was successful in bringing Man United to win UCL tickets. But in the UCL, Man United also failed miserably and could only be at the bottom of the group when competing in the group stage. And that's quite embarrassing. But Erik ten Hag always didn't want to be blamed. Even now, Erik Ten Hag is considered to be careless in recruiting players. But Erik Ten Hag also denied this. The point is that in the club now people are also starting to blame each other. And don't want to be blamed. In essence, these clubs have really become less harmonious. Maybe Ten Hag's dismissal could also be a solution. But I also doubt that this will improve the team in the next season. unless this club brings in a coach who is more humble and can make everyone comfortable. I am sure Man United will return to their best performance again next season if they choose the right coach.
The dismissal of Ten Hag is going to be a temporary solution to a long-term problem. And I am pretty certain that whoever the new coach is going to be, he is not going to be able to bring in results that will be incredibly better compared to what Manchester United is bringing in right now. As long as the owners of Manchester United do not change, things are not going to get better. Doesn't matter how much money they spend and how many coaches they change.
