Erik ten Hag is more than ever criticized. If since the departure of the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson, no coach really stands out among the Red Devils, the Dutchman is floundering at the start of the season. Manchester United are in 10th place, have had the worst start to a campaign in 34 years and have had to deal with too many extra-sporting affairs lately. On the bench, the former Ajax player seems to be running out of ideas. It makes you wonder if he is the man for the job. Not according to Zlatan Ibrahimovic who did not hesitate to point the finger at Erik ten Hag during his interview with Piers Morgan on Talk TV.
“Coming from Ajax to United like he did is a big difference, I’ve been at both clubs. You have a different type of discipline. Ajax is a talented club. They have the best talent at the club. They don’t have big stars. How experienced is this coach? He comes to United, it’s a different mentality. The players there are supposed to be big stars. I don’t think you give the same treatment. How much time do you give a coach? It depends on the owners, what they want, but if you listen to the fans, you don’t have much time because they want to win, and I understand them because they are used to winning and they still want earn. United must win, they must win every title they play for.explains the Swede, who played for Ajax and Manchester United.
