Erik ten Hag has staunchly defended his tenure as Manchester United’s manager by highlighting the significant challenges he has faced due to injuries. He emphasized that his squad has been fully fit for only one game during his two years in charge, attributing this to the team’s inconsistent performance.
Despite speculation surrounding his future at the club, ten Hag remains focused on his objective of delivering silverware and creating economic value for the team. He acknowledged the setbacks and criticism but expressed his determination to concentrate on improving the team and individual players.
ten Hag emphasized the impact of injuries on the team’s performance, stating that the high number of injuries in crucial positions has hindered their ability to achieve desired results. With Manchester United’s FA Cup match against Coventry approaching, ten Hag will be hoping for a turnaround in their fortunes and for a similar heroic performance to that of their victory against Manchester City.
