Teddy Sheringham says Manchester United could be facing another season of “absolute chaos” in Erik ten Hag's first campaign in charge.
United endured their worst season of the Premier League era last term, finishing sixth, with a points tally of 58 their lowest since the top-flight was revamped from the old First Division in 1992-93. Former United strike Sheringham has questioned the appointment of former Ajax boss ten Hag, claiming the fallen giants need a boss with Premier League experience to haul them out of their current crisis.
And Sheringham reckons United could fall even further behind rivals like Manchester City and Liverpool, while ten Hag tries to adapt to the unique challenge of the Premier League. “I don't know an awful lot about ten Hag, but he's got a tough job on his hands,” said Sheringham.
