“I think the fans have the patience – you’ve seen it on Monday,” Ten Hag mentioned, referencing the wave of help from the United travelling followers instantly after their 4-0 loss at Palace.
“However after I see some feedback, they do not. And both they haven’t any information about soccer, or they haven’t any information about managing a soccer workforce. It is doable, or they simply are as much as it.
“But I think there are many people that see the problems and they are patient.”
Ten Hag is assured “common sense” will prevail because the membership’s decision-makers take into account his future, brushing apart discuss that Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the INEOS group may sack him even when United gained the FA Cup, as occurred to compatriot Louis van Gaal in 2016.
“If I see the problems we have faced, all the injuries, and in almost every game they fought,” Ten Hag mentioned. “There was great team spirit.
“Not on Monday, that’s the reason I used to be so dissatisfied. Monday I used to be actually dissatisfied (with) and likewise the gamers have been dissatisfied with themselves. There was collectively failure.
“But all the other games we fought with each other, had good team spirit, so, no, I can’t have any doubt about this.”
Arteta: I love Ten Hag’s United
Arsenal supervisor Arteta believes Ten Hag is a wonderful coach who deserves extra time to get issues proper at Previous Trafford.
“I can only talk about what I think about him as a coach. He’s an excellent coach. I admire his teams, both Ajax and United,” Arteta replied when requested about Ten Hag’s place.
“I know what he’s trying to do, I know how he does it, I know how difficult it is to prepare against him, so I have huge respect for him.
“Hopefully, sure, he will get the time as a result of we’re colleagues and we all know how tough it’s on this league and what the margins are and yeah, hopefully that is the case as a result of I feel he is a wonderful coach.
“If you want to win the Premier League and big trophies, you have to go to these grounds and impose yourself and beat them. That’s the journey we are on and that’s for sure what we are going to try to do on Sunday.”
Neville vs Carragher: What ought to Man Utd do on Ten Hag?
Gary Neville to Sky Sports activities:
“I don’t see a suitable replacement for Ten Hag available. Bayern Munich are struggling to find a replacement, others are struggling.
“I feel we have to stick to Ten Hag and provides him another season – an injury-free season – to see if United can get again to the requirements of final season the place they gained a trophy and completed within the prime 4.
“Players and managers have struggled to come to terms with Old Trafford in the last 10 years. These players and managers were great when United signed them, so there is something fundamentally wrong that is creating this difficulty. Maybe the new ownership and personnel will allow these players and manager to feel more stable.
“Look, I hope in three, 4 weeks that this FA Cup ultimate towards Manchester Metropolis, which is such a troublesome sport, we all know how good Metropolis are, but when they’ll simply defy the percentages who is aware of the place which may result in.
“You know, in 1989-90 Sir Alex Ferguson won an FA Cup that put belief into him, into a group of players. They then went on to win a Cup Winners’ Cup, then went onto win the League Cup, then went on to eventually win a league title.
“It was constructing block by block, step-by-step and that might be simply across the nook, or it might be a number of years away, however they may win once more, Manchester United. It is inevitable.”
Jamie Carragher in his Daily Telegraph column:
“Ten Hag took over at United with a giant repute due to his work at Ajax, particularly when he led them to the Champions League semi-final. He was not offered as an rising coach however at 52 was imagined to be a ready-made one who would impose a transparent imaginative and prescient.
United had certified for the Champions League in two of the three seasons previous Ten Hag’s appointment and there was a perception proficient gamers wanted superior teaching and a change of tradition on the coaching floor.
“Like Arteta, Ten Hag had no choice but to use the personnel available to be more pragmatic in his first season. Over his first three transfer windows, United spent just over £380 million and nothing has changed as they have bought more deadwood than they have sold.
“Of Ten Hag’s first Premier League line-up (defeat by Brighton in August, 2022), seven would in all probability nonetheless make the primary selection XI. Solely two have left the membership, and one other, Jadon Sancho, is about to play the Champions League ultimate on mortgage at Borussia Dortmund.
“United have been regularly outclassed by rivals, losing 6-3 against Manchester City and 7-0 to Liverpool, while struggling against mid-table Premier League teams too.
“Even when United have loved good outcomes underneath Ten Hag, I’m genuinely struggling to recall any exceptionally good performances with a perceptively proactive system of play. Two years on, they aren’t arrange like a prime workforce.
“None of Arteta’s most disappointing losses were remotely comparable to the 4-0 defeat by Crystal Palace on Monday night. Worryingly for Ten Hag, the biggest difference is he is not the owner’s appointment. The Arsenal board staked their reputation on Arteta coming good. Logic suggests Ratcliffe will be more inclined to stand or fall based on his managerial pick.”
