Ten Hag firmly brushes off questions about sacking: 'That's not an issue'

Erik ten Hag is not considering dismissal Manchester United. According to him, there is no question of increased pressure on the Dutch manager.

Ten Hag is working on an extremely weak streak. After a 1-1 draw against FC Twente and a 0-3 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur, United managed no further than a 3-3 draw at FC Porto on Thursday night. According to English media, the upcoming games are crucial for Ten Hag, which he himself does not want to know about. “I don’t think about that issue, because it’s not a topic,” he says ahead of the away game against Aston Villa.

“We are a unit, the owners, the management of the club, the team and the technical staff,” stresses Ten Hag, who understands that things must improve. “We must progress big to do if we want to make the season successful. And if we want to win trophies, like we did in the last two seasons.”

United face Villa on Sunday at 3pm.
