THE RED DEVILS' STRUGGLES CONTINUE: PRESSURE MOUNTS ON MANAGER ERIK TEN HAG

A Tough Road Ahead
The Red Devils, Manchester United, are facing a challenging situation in the European competition. They are on the verge of being eliminated in the group stage. To stay in the competition, they not only need to defeat Bayern Munich, who are determined to bounce back after a surprising 5-1 loss, but they also have to hope for a favorable outcome in the match between Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

A Disappointing Start
Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, is under immense pressure after a humiliating 3-0 defeat against Bournemouth on their home ground. This season has been one of the worst starts in recent history for the team. Many people are calling for Ten Hag to be replaced, and the criticism is growing louder. Even when the Red Devils have managed to win, their performances have been far from convincing.

The Media's Impact
Unsurprisingly, the English media has been relentless in their criticism of Ten Hag due to the team's poor performance. Pundits in Ten Hag's home country of the Netherlands also believe that the media's harsh treatment has unnecessarily increased the pressure on him.

Voices from the Netherlands
During a discussion on Dutch TV, former players Wim Kieft and Johan Boskamp expressed their thoughts on Ten Hag's situation. They agreed that their fellow countryman is being treated unfairly by the English media.

Boskamp said, "They [the media] are just lying there in bushes, that is not nice there." Kieft added that "it's five times worse there than here."

A Graveyard for Managers
The pundits also echoed the sentiments of Manchester United legend Paul Scholes, who recently stated that the club has become a difficult place for managers since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson. Even renowned coaches like Jose Mourinho and Louis van Gaal have struggled to consistently turn things around at the club.

"Jose Mourinho and Louis van Gaal also died there. Everyone dies there... There must also be something wrong within that club," Kieft remarked.

The pressure is mounting on Erik ten Hag as Manchester United continues to face challenges on and off the field. Only time will tell if he can turn things around and bring success back to the Red Devils.
