“Your Career is over here we don’t need you anymore I can’t see any future in you” Sir Jim Ratcliffe has Sacked Manchester United Coach Erig Ten Hag this morning after Shocking defeat Vs Chelsea
Following Brentford’s collapse, there was a comeback. But not for Manchester United. United were more West End than West London in this thrilling and rowdy performance, which ended when Diogo Dalot awkwardly upended Noni Madueke in the 96th minute.
This season, United has scored 26 goals in the 80th minute or later of 90-minute games. Make it 28 immediately. The last two went to Chelsea and Cole Palmer. United fans heckled Palmer, calling him a “City reject.”
If only the Wythenshawe-born childhood Red had refused City. It is disgraceful that United let him go past the net. Palmer is one of only a few players to score a hat-trick against them. Also unacceptable is United’s tendency to concede late goals and in quick succession.
Brentford scored in the 110th and 111th minutes after a 99th-minute equaliser past Andre Onana. Mauricio Pochettino and his staff rushed onto the pitch. Erik ten Hag skulked into the passageway without shaking hands.
There is no longer any room for uncertainty. United’s current roster lacks the attitude to compete in the Champions League. Even in one of United’s better performances during a turbulent campaign, there was eventually evidence to file in the ‘Ten Hag out’ dossier.
United scored familiar scores and were eliminated at the death yet again. Antony was almost in tears at the final screech. United performed admirably in front of a thunderous crowd in the away section of the Shed End, implying that there was a “process” as Ten Hag mentioned in his pre-match press conference on Wednesday.
But this was one of their most vexing results. United has a history of coming back from 2-0 down to win 3-2, and this appeared to be another. Even when Chelsea led 2-0, there were positive aspects to their performance. United brimmed with silk and steel as they dealt with additional defensive casualties, introducing 19-year-old Willy Kambwala for a thorough assessment.
