“They don't have any knowledge of football' - Erik Ten Hag slams critics calling for his sacking

Erik Ten Hag has taken a dig at his critics who are clamouring for him to be sacked from Manchester United.

Man United have struggled this season under the guidance of Ten Hag, leaving them in eighth position on the Premier League table.

Ten Hags men were humiliated by Crystal Palace's 4-0 on Monday which has led to more pressure from the manager.

The Red Devils are on the verge of missing out on European football next season which has led to fans and pundits calling for the sacking of the manager.

Ten Hag's response to critics

Ten Hag in his press conference denied rumours that his injured team had lost hope on him after he was eliminated from the European spots.

According to reports from Daily Mail, Ten Hag said, “In almost every game except Palace, they have fought. There is a good team spirit. We saw it against Brentford, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Coventry until 70 minutes.

“They were resilient against Sheffield United, and the physical output against Burnley, their third game in six days, was incredible.

“I see some comments (from pundits). Either they don't have any knowledge of football or managing a football team.”

Meanwhile, Man United have some players back from injury ahead of their game against title challengers Arsenal.

Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford who missed the trip to Selhurst Park are expected to play against the Gunners.
