Well losing to an U20 Brazilian team in preseason you could tell this was about to happen. Trailing 4-0 at halftime and finish 5-1

LOL yeah they got smoked. My Blues also beat them badly in the preseason. Scoreline was only 2-0 but it very easily could have been 6-0.

They said it wasn't an issue with the results, it was that he wasn't a good communicator and getting through to the players.

But props to Leverkusen...they did in 2 months what it took your boys 2 years to realize LOL

Gotta bridge to sell you if you believe that ..

However I do believe he wasn’t much of a motivator by any stretch. I wouldn’t look to any Dutchman for that.

Run me that bridge then because they drew one and lost one....hardly a start that would get a manager fired UNLESS there were other issues which have been confirmed by BILD (leading German football paper.

Looks like he was also trying to fatten his pockets by only recommending they buy players from his agency. For reference:

"Erik ten Hag is represented by the football agency SEG Football, which also represents several players he has brought to Manchester United, including Rasmus Højlund, André Onana, and Antony. Other players on SEG Football's roster include Lisandro Martínez, Sofyan Amrabat, and Joshua Zirkzee."

Yeah, nothing shady there LOL
