Evidence shows Erik ten Hag still has United dressing room

It is not all doom and gloom over at Old Trafford and a new evidence on the internet shows players still love Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag.

Amidst speculations surrounding the future of Manchester United’s manager, Erik ten Hag, two players from the club, Alejandro Garnacho and Luke Shaw, have shown public support for the Dutchman by endorsing tweets suggesting that he has not lost control of the dressing room at Old Trafford.

Ten Hag has faced a challenging season, marked by nine defeats in 17 matches, including a recent 4-3 loss to Copenhagen in the Champions League.

The string of poor results has fueled rumors of potential replacements, with Sporting’s Ruben Amorim and Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane being mentioned as candidates.

Despite the struggles, Ten Hag’s side secured a crucial 1-0 victory over Luton before the international break, accumulating 12 points from their last five Premier League games since October 7. Notably, their lone league defeat during this period was a 3-0 loss to Manchester City on October 29.

In a paradoxical twist, United players Shaw and Garnacho have liked tweets expressing support for Ten Hag. Shaw, who joined United in 2014, initially liked a tweet suggesting that the team’s lack of firepower should not be solely attributed to the manager.

The tweet read, “Players can’t finish but it’s obviously Ten Hag’s fault right? I hate Manchester United fans.” Shaw, however, seems to have since ‘unliked’ the post.

On the other hand, Garnacho, who made his debut under Ten Hag, liked a thread on X emphasizing the need for patience with the manager.

The first tweet in the thread by EBL2017 stated,

“I call for patience with Erik ten Hag. Manchester United’s tactical display last night was their BEST of the season. Don’t let the fact that they went down to 10 men fool you otherwise. They were sensational with 11 men & it was ENTIRELY down to Erik ten Hag!”
