Erik ten Hag's approach to coaching has not been well received by Manchester United's players. Reports suggest that the team's morale is suffering as a result of his hardline tactics.
Ten Hag has shown no hesitation to publicly criticize his players when they fail to meet his expectations, which has only added to the unease in the United dressing room. This was evident after their 3-0 loss to Manchester City on Sunday, with Ten Hag lambasting his team for not sticking to their game plan.
The Dutchman was especially unhappy with the second goal that was conceded shortly after half time. He said that United had made the wrong decision by going up to the keeper and not recovering quickly, which allowed City to take control of the midfield and score.
In light of their five losses in the Premier League this season, Ten Hag attempted to reassure the United squad in his programme notes ahead of their Carabao Cup tie against Newcastle on Wednesday evening. He wrote that there is pressure on everyone involved with the club, but that he is certain that the team will start to show signs of improvement soon.
