MU Legend makes a bold remark on Erik ten Hag

Erik ten Hag's career as Manchester United manager is predicted to end before Christmas this year. This belief was expressed by the legendary Red Devils striker, Teddy Sheringham. The Dutch man's managerial chair has been shaken since last season. However, his success in bringing United to win the FA Cup made the management finally decide to retain the man from the Netherlands.

Not only continue to be trusted, but Ten Hag also bought a number of his dream players in the summer transfer window yesterday. Players who came to Old Trafford included Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt. Unfortunately, the Red Devils' performance entering the new season was still inconsistent. In fact, in the last match the Red Devils had to suffer a 0-3 defeat from their eternal rivals, Liverpool.

According to Sheringham, MU management's decision to continue to put their trust in Ten Hag was proven wrong. There has been no positive change from United's early season form. "When you finish eighth in the Premier League, that's not good enough for Man United. End of the season. End of the story, for me. You have to change what's going on," Sheringham told Ladbrokes.

"When you look at the inconsistency of last season, and it's continued, without a doubt in the first three games of the season... you can see there's been no change at all," "Different players, maybe. But there is still no change in philosophy, and the way Erik ten Hag wants to play." he said.

Sheringham also considered that Ten Hag did not deserve to continue being trusted at MU. Sheringham predicted that MU management would fire Ten Hag before Christmas this year. "Listen, I don't want to see people fired. It's not good to say that people shouldn't be in certain positions, but he shouldn't be there. That's not good enough for Man United," said Sheringham.

“They have fallen way below expectations, and to think that it is OK to finish eighth... that is wrong,” “Do I think the manager will be there at the end of the season? No. I think he will be gone before Christmas,” the 58-year-old legend said.
