Alejandro Garnacho liked the publication where journalist Fabricio Romano took Cristiano Ronaldo's statements where he states that Erik Ten Hag cannot say “that they cannot compete to win the Premier and the Champions League. "As Manchester United coach you can't say you're not going to fight to win."

The presence of Erik Ten Hag at Manchester United is not well received by fans, the press and now not by players either, the Red Devils coach is someone without ambition and does not have what is fundamental in a team, having the words correct to be able to motivate a player.

It seems that the golden era of Manchester United is behind us, with the arrival of Jim Ratcliffe to the presidency of the team everything pointed to a radical change but things have not changed, it has now been five consecutive years in which the largest club in England presents economic losses due to mismanagement in all aspects, on and off the playing field.

What is Manchester United's deficit?

Manchester United announced losses of more than £ 113 million, no one understands how the president maintained that this does not imply breaking the rules of financial fair play if the regulations state that if a team presents losses of more than £105 million in three years (Manchester lost £115 million in 2021, 28.7 in 2022 and 2023-2024 registers a 113 million deficit).

Manchester United plays with fire on the issue of financial fair play and may receive a harsh sanction. "The club is committed to the financial rules of both the Premier League and UEFA," said Omar Berrada, executive president of Manchester United, the strategy would be to justify the losses by relating to women's football and grassroots football.

Manchester United received harsh criticism from former figures and legends of the team such as Rio Ferdinand, Roy Keane and Paul Scholes. They have shown their discomfort at seeing how they manage the team from the financial to the sporting side, but above all the most criticized thing is that desire. for keeping a coach who is not hungry for titles like Erik Ten Hag.

Bad news that is also accompanied by the numerous blows that the team receives from those who lived through the golden era. There is not a week that Rio Ferdinand, Roy Keane or Paul Scholes do not openly criticize the team's play and the Dutch coach Erik Ten Hag, who still had some stick left to receive. And he did it through the mouth of Cristiano Ronaldo.

To the criticism of these former players was added that of the record man, Mister Champions, the player with the most records in the world of football, Cristiano Ronaldo, what no one expected is that one of the players of the current squad and prospect for the future , Alejandro Garnacho will react on social networks and “like” a post where the coach is strongly criticized.

Talk is already beginning about a possible departure of Erik ten Hag from Manchester United, as revealed by The Sun portal, there is an ultimatum for the coach and if they do not beat Southampton this weekend in the Premier League it would be the final point for the relationship between them, what is worrying is that no coach with a career wants to take charge of the team, the rejection has already been received from Zinedine Zidane and the rest have a current contract, the only one who is free is the former Liverpool coach, Jurgen Klopp who already stated that he would agree to direct due to his past with The Beatles' city team.
