Ten Hag

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag says he is “not thinking” about the club’s owners opting for a change of manager and claims they are “all on one page”.

The Old Trafford club were beaten 3-0 by Tottenham on Sunday, which left them 12th in the Premier League with seven points from their opening six league games.

United have already lost three top-flight games this season and their points tally is the club’s joint-fewest after six games of a Premier League season.

Asked whether he thought United’s hierarchy might think they need a different manager in charge after the defeat by Spurs, Ten Hag said: “I am not thinking about this.

“We all made the decision to stay together as ownership and a leadership group in the summer.

“We made the decision from after a clear review what we have to improve as an organisation and how we want to construct a squad.

“We knew it will take some time, because of how the [transfer] window went, some players late in like [Manuel] Ugarte, also we have to make some improvement in the organisation, we still have to deal with some injuries, also from some impact players.

“I think we will get better there. We need some time. We are all on one page or in one boat together, the ownership, the leadership group, the staff and the players’ group as well. I don’t have that concern.”
