It has been over a week since Manchester United fired Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman was dismissed following their controversial defeat away at West Ham, their fourth defeat of the season.
Goalkeeper Andre Onana has looked back at Erik ten Hag’s tenure and discussed what went wrong. Ten Hag’s third season at the club, 2024/25, was characterised by humiliating defeats and a lack of progression on the pitch.

“In high level it’s not easy. Sometimes you have to pay the price. Unfortunately it was him. We did everything, the players gave everything, we worked hard, we tried out best, but it just didn’t work.”
Amroim will be expected to right the wrongs of ten Hag when he coaches his first game on November 24.
