Man Utd told to immediately sack Erik ten Hag as replacement named

Jamie O’Hara has called on Manchester United to put Erik ten Hag out of his misery following their latest disappointing defeat.

Ten Hag has overseen a poor start to the new season after narrowly keeping his job in the summer and the scrutiny is only likely to grow on the beleaguered Dutchman in the coming days following their 2-1 loss against West Ham.

Speaking on Sky Sports, the former Tottenham midfielder said: “Nine games and in [United] are 14th in the table….come on, this is Man United.

O’Hara then went on to suggest that Ten Hag’s No.2, Ruud van Nistelrooy, should be given the role after returning to Old Trafford in the summer. Members of the club hierarchy are also said to have held talks with former Barcelona boss Xavi in Spain recently.
