Erik ten Hag looks like he is being set up to fail at Manchester United before he has even started.
That’s the verdict of former Liverpool and England striker Stan Collymore, who reckons many if not all of the big issues that still needed dealing with at Old Trafford should have been sorted well before day one of pre-season. Collymore said: “Seeing Erik ten Hag drive into Carrington this morning, with coach Steve McClaren not far behind him, I couldn’t help thinking there’ll be a lot of mocking and tough times coming his way at Manchester United.
"That’s because I don’t see a man walking in and, like Jurgen Klopp, going, ‘I’m here, I’m ready, I’m laughing, but, do you know what? Beneath this jokey exterior I am going to change the nature of this club’.
