‘Einde Ten Hag na flater met Zirkzee’

In Engeland wordt er alwéér geroepen om het ontslag van oefenmeester Erik ten Hag bij Manchester United. The Red Devils speelden met 0-0 gelijk tegen Crystal Palace in de Premier League en leden op die manier voor de derde keer dit seizoen puntenverlies. Ten Hag wordt vooral keihard aangepakt omdat hij zijn beste spelers: voor Joshua Zirkzee en Amad Diallo naar de kant haalde, waarmee hij het aanvalsspel van zijn eigen ploeg de nek omdraaide. Op X lezen we onder meer: ‘Please Manchester United, ontsla hem nú. Hij is een ‘fraud’ en kan niet eens wisselen als zijn leven ervan afhangt!’

‘Manchester United moet Erik ten Hag nú ontslaan’

Fire Erik ten Hag NOW!
With his sluggish pattern of playing football!
Nothing to offer @ManUtd & lack technicality in subs late! #ErikTenHagOUT

Ten Hag is a fucking fraud of the highest degree, please @ManUtd SACK HIM NOW! No in game management, clueless shocking tablet coach. Fergie hardly ever took training but could move sub/switch players like a chess master, this idiot is all talk, full of it!

Man Utd with Zirkzee on the pitch:
Final third pass accuracy: 73.4%
Final third passes per minute: 1.52

When Zirkzee came off:
Final third pass accuracy: 60.7%
Final third passes per minute: 0.57

With Zirkzee on the field, #MUFC made nearly three times more final third passes… pic.twitter.com/O5nbtzYj01

Uniteds big chances this game:

Zirkzee plays Garnacho through.
Zirkzee plays Bruno through.
Zirkzee wins the ball and Dalot plays Garnacho through.

ETH’s bright idea? Take Zirkzee off.

There are certain things I don’t understand about Erik Ten Hag.

– Marcus Rashford was in form, yet you decided to bench him.
– Manuel Ugarte was brought in to dominate the midfield immediately.
– The moment Joshua Zirkzee was subbed off, there was no threat in front of goal.…

Man Utd review:
– Most big chances missed in the league this season.
– Mazraoui MOTM- his control, ability on the ball/ to progress play is next level.
– Zirzkee being subbed killed us in attack.
– Zirkzee, Amad, Eriksen = most technical players and taking them off meant we lost… pic.twitter.com/ZSzUDOKuXR

This is a very good squad of players held back by the dude in charge. Resting Rashford was fucking dumb. Taking Zirkzee off was fucking dumb. The manager is fucking dumb.

Taking Zirkzee off killed the attack. He brings so much to the team.

Ten Hag doesn’t know what to do with this team, terrible coach we need to sack him and get in someone who understands how to manage a team
