Erik Ten Hag hits back at Cristiano Ronaldo over ‘dubious’ claims

Al-Nassr captain Cristiano Ronaldo claimed that Ten Hag should not publicly say that Man Utd cannot compete for the titles. The manager has gone on to say quite a few times that his side is not close to winning the titles. Especially big titles like the Premier League and UCL. The former United man believes that it shows Ten Hag’s lack of ambition. The Dutchman has managed to ‘survive’ as a manager at the Old Trafford. He was quite close to being fired. But the fact that he was able to win another trophy in the form of the FA Cup by beating Man City saved him. At the same time, INEOS was not able to find a better candidate just yet. But, his position at United is under scrutiny once again. 

Man Utd manager Ten Hag turns the tide on Ronaldo

The Dutch manager answered the statements made by the Portuguese international in an interview. As per mirror.co.uk, he ended up pointing fingers at the 39-year-old instead. He would go on to say that the forward is currently far away in Saudi Arabia. He added that Ronaldo can have his opinion. At the same time, Man Utd manager Ten Hag stressed the fact that these are still the early days of the season. 

The Dutchman in serious trouble?

The Red Devils have begun the season poorly yet again. They were able to win 1-0 in the first game of the Premier League. But Man Utd and Ten Hag fell short in the game week 2. Brighton managed to beat them 2-1 in the dying stages of the 90. Finally, the Red Devils were humbled at home by Arne Slot’s Liverpool. The Anfield Reds managed to beat them 0-3. As a result, the Dutch coach is under a lot of pressure. United currently sit in the 14th spot on the league table.
