Manchester United have had quite a few sobering days at Old Trafford since Sir Alex Ferguson retired so there’s an air of expectancy now, as sad as that is.
Alex Ferguson who was disappointed with Erik Ten and his team play today against Liverpool, has openly criticize Casemiro and Mainoo.
Casemiro was far from his best as Manchester United slumped to a crushing 3-0 defeat to Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The Brazilian midfielder made two errors that lead to goal, then Mainoo misplaced a pass in the second half that led to Liverpool’s third goal.
Given Casemiro’s poor performance, it made clear sense that he was replaced by Toby Collyer at half-time, with Erik ten Hag clearly unwilling to risk him making more costly mistakes.
Moreover, Erik ten Hag kept his job as Manchester United manager in the summer – yet he is by no means safe.
Ineos held a performance-review at the end of the season, in which Erik ten Hag’s future as manager was debated.
After considering alternative options, Ineos decided to stick with Ten Hag. It came amid the high of United winning the FA Cup Final, and United needed that positivity to last.
It hasn’t. Three games into the 2024/25 season, United have one win and two losses
