‘It's so hard to say’ - Netherlands legend fears Ten Hag will be sacked at Man United

Edgar Davids, Netherlands legend, believes Erik Ten Hag will be fired unless Manchester United wins more games.

Erik Ten Hag has struggled to live up to expectations at Manchester United, with many calling for him to be sacked.

This season, the team has struggled to challenge the big guns, having won just three matches in their last eight Premier League games.

The Red Devils are currently languishing in 12th position on the EPL table and have not found a solution to their poor form.

Edgar Davids speaks on Ten Hag

Davids thinks that Ten Hag is struggling at Old Trafford as a result of his squad lacking a top-tier goal scorer.

The former Ajax man told BetMGM, "I know him (Ten Hag) very well. I did an internship at FC Utrecht and he was there.

"He was very innovative with lots of different things, and I was very impressed. He’s very focused and passionate about football. 

“We all know it hasn't gone great at Manchester United. They are a club trying to rebuild and that's never easy.

"But I do look at their options up front and think there's not a prolific goalscorer there, which makes such a difference.

"For me, that's what they are really missing. Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee are good, young strikers and have talent, but they don't have that experience yet. 

“It's so hard to say if he's going to stay (Ten Hag), but the one thing you do know is, just like Real Madrid, results are what you are judged on. And they clearly haven't been nearly good enough while he's been in charge.”

Manchester United will face Fenerbache in the Europa League and will be looking to build on their comeback win against Brentford.
