Manchester United and Erik Ten Hag have parted ways after the Dutchman was sacked for poor results.
Premier League fans have taken to social media to react after Manchester United sacked manager Erik Ten Hag following a disappointing run of results this season.
The Dutchman, who was appointed in April 2022, struggled to guide the team to form, securing only three wins in his last nine matches. This poor performance has left the club languishing in 14th place in the Premier League, with just 11 points from those games after defeat to West Ham.

In an official statement, the club announced, “Erik ten Hag has left his role as Manchester United men’s first-team manager. Erik was appointed in April 2022 and led the club to two domestic trophies, winning the Carabao Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024.”
Despite these achievements, the current season's dismal showing ultimately led to his dismissal.
The reaction from fans has been mixed, with many expressing concern for Ten Hag's personal circumstances. Social media has been flooded with comments highlighting his role as a father and husband.
One fan lamented, “Ten Hag has a family to feed and children in school. He is people's breadwinner.” Another echoed this sentiment, pleading for his re-employment: “How will he feed his family? Please you people should beg so he can be re-employed.”

The emotional responses reflect not only sympathy for Ten Hag but also a broader concern about job security in a challenging economic landscape.
One fan pointed out the existing unemployment rate in the UK: “With an estimated unemployment rate of 21.8% already existing in the UK, the INEOS just added a whole breadwinner of his family to that staggering number. What is PM Keir Starmer doing about this?”

While many fans expressed sympathy for Ten Hag's situation, others were less forgiving regarding his managerial performance. One frustrated supporter stated,
“Foolish man made me lose interest in the sport completely; I stopped looking forward to matches. On a norm, on match days I’d drop over 10 contents before the game starts. Fuck you Ten Hag; I pray you fail in your next club.”

The decision to part ways with Ten Hag highlights the high stakes and intense pressure surrounding managerial roles at elite football clubs like Manchester United. This development marks another chapter in Manchester United's ongoing quest for stability and success as they navigate a tumultuous season.
