Ten Hag returns to critical fixtures
- Published
Erik ten Hag returned to Manchester United on Monday to prepare for Saturday’s Premier League game against Brentford at Old Trafford.
The Dutchman was under intense pressure heading into the international break.
Although he followed a terrible 3-0 home defeat by Tottenham with creditable away draws against FC Porto and Aston Villa, there was huge speculation he would lose his job before United’s league campaign resumed.
However, that has not happened and Ten Hag is focussing on turning United’s season round.
Club officials are not happy at the club’s current 14th placed position in the Premier League and Ten Hag faces a critical few games as he looks to reverse current form, which has seen his side go five games without a win.
