Reports suggest that potential candidates to replace Erik ten Hag at Manchester United are hesitant due to strong criticism from former players now working in punditry. Ten Hag has faced significant backlash from ex-United players during his two years tenure particularly following a recent 4-0 loss to Crystal Palace.
Bayern Munich’s Thomas Tuchel and former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane are rumored replacements but concerns arise from the impact of comments made by former players. United legends like Gary Neville, Rio Ferdinand and Paul Scholes have been vocal critics with Neville and Ferdinand also active on platforms like YouTube.
Despite Ten Hag having a year left on his contract, concerns persist over the negative media attention surrounding the United managerial role. Ten Hag himself has pushed back against criticism pointing out that even United’s successful teams experienced periods of underperformance during Sir Alex Ferguson tenure.
