Manager still confident he can turn team’s form around despite team sitting in 14th after seven games
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag: he dismissed 'fairy tale' speculation about his future and insisted he remains on the same page as the club hierarchy. Photograph: Mike Egerton/PA WireErik ten Hag has admitted that Manchester United’s board are “not happy” with a start that has left his side in 14th and with only three wins in 10 games in all competitions.
In the main Ten Hag has retained the backing of fans at Old Trafford. He was asked whether he would understand if this support waned should results not improve. “We are on the same page and in the same boat,” he said. “If you have a strong connection between each other they see the problems we have to face at the start of the season and they know if we stick together in the end we’ll repay them and their trust in us. That’s what we did the last two years. I’m convinced this will happen.
“We have to climb a mountain,” Ten Hag acknowledged. “But that is top football and sometimes you have to face challenges, sometimes it goes up, sometimes it goes down. But I am sure we will make it a success as we did the last two seasons.
