After Manchester United’s home loss to Arsenal, Erik ten Hag became enraged with a specific journalist, calling their post-match question “pathetic.”
In what has been a terrible season, the Red Devils lost 1-0 to Mikel Arteta’s team at Old Trafford on Sunday, adding additional pressure on Ten Hag.
Ten Hag is growing irritated with the media as he hears rumours about his future, and United appears to be headed for their worst result in over thirty years.
When asked how much of a lead United would have over Arsenal if he had a fully healthy squad, Ten Hag responded angrily, following United’s club record-tying 14th Premier League loss of the season.
“It is pitiful,” Ten Hag remarked. We are not required to respond to this query right now. since it isn’t.
We are facing these issues, and they are having an impact on our outcomes. However, if the players were on board, I’m not sure where we would be.
“We will score more points and have a more consistent backline if all of the players are on board.”
Due to injuries, Tyrell Malacia, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, Raphael Varane, Viktor Lindelof, and Mason Mount were unable to play against Arsenal.
Players like Rashford and Fernandes have been forewarned by Ten Hag not to play in the forthcoming FA Cup final against Manchester City unless they can demonstrate their fitness.
Ten Hag continued, “They know that you need game practice if you want to go into a hard game like the Cup final.”
Wayne Rooney, a legend of Manchester United, has shockingly stated that some of the team’s players are only taking care of themselves and are not genuinely hurt.
Rooney said to Sky Sports, “You look at the injuries, and some of those players could play 100 percent.” Both the FA Cup final and the European Championships are approaching. It is common for players to take a brief break before returning to the European Championships.
Over the years, I have personally witnessed it. Simply put, I believe that the injured players aren’t getting enough credit right now.
