Report: Ineos make Ten Hag decison after 3-0 Spurs defeat

Manchester United have reportedly decided to stick with underfire manager Erik ten Hag for the upcoming two fixtures at the least. 

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is under huge pressure after his Red Devils suffered a 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

The defeat leaves United 12th in the table with seven points and a minus-three goal difference.

The performance was one of the worst displays under Ten Hag with big concerns over identity and style of play causing results to falter.

Ineos decided to back the former Ajax coach after flirting with the idea of replacing the Dutchman in the summer.

However, after a poor start to the season, pressure is rapidly mounting on the 56-year-old coach.

Manchester United are set for away trips to face FC Porto and Aston Villa this week, which will reportedly be huge in deciding Ten Hag’s Old Trafford future.

The new Manchester United football structure has reportedly decided to stick with Ten Hag for this week’s fixtures but has put emphasis that it is an important week for the underfire manager.

According to the Telegraph’s James Ducker, there is a big concern at the club, but there is still support for the Dutch coach.

Speaking on X, Ducker stated: “Erik ten Hag will remain in charge for the Porto and Aston Villa games. 

“Focus remains on supporting the manager, his staff and players but little doubt the pressure is building. 

“A big week for the MUFC manager.”

It will be a huge week for the United boss who cannot suffer further damaging results in the coming games with pressure building after every defeat.
