Wesley Sneijder, a former star player for the Netherlands, recently shared his thoughts on Manchester United's current situation. The team has been facing criticism for their decision to stick with manager Erik ten Hag, who has been under fire after a disappointing 3-0 loss to Tottenham. With two games left to save his job, the pressure is on for ten Hag as United's upcoming matches against Porto and Aston Villa will be crucial.
Last week, United's Europa League clash against FC Twente ended in a frustrating 1-1 draw, making their game against Porto even more significant. As they prepare for their upcoming matches, United will have to face an Aston Villa side that has been in top form, with five consecutive wins before their recent draw against Ipswich Town. While ten Hag will remain in charge for now, there are talks of assistant manager Ruud van Nistelrooy potentially taking over if a change is made.
Adding to the discussion is former Real Madrid and Inter Milan star Wesley Sneijder, who was once linked to a move to Old Trafford in 2011. Sneijder questioned the logic behind United's decision to stick with ten Hag, wondering if a lucky win against Porto and Aston Villa can make up for their poor start to the season. He also raised concerns about the club's apparent plans to appoint a new manager while still hoping for ten Hag to turn things around.
The numbers don't lie for United, as they currently sit in 13th place with three losses in their first six games. Their goal difference is also a dismal -3, with only Southampton having scored less than ten Hag's side. Despite the pressure and speculation, ten Hag remains confident in his position and the team's unity. He reiterated that the ownership, leadership, staff, and players are all on the same page and that he is not worried about losing his job.
As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Manchester United and their performances. The team will have to put in their best efforts to turn things around and prove their critics wrong. Only time will tell if ten Hag will remain as manager or if a change will be made.
