Man United’s start to season no cause for panic – Erik ten Hag

Manchester United boss Erik Ten Hag has said there is no need to hit the panic buttons despite a horrid start to the season for his team. United find themselves in 13th place in the standings with only two wins in six matches, one draw, and three losses.

The Red Devils suffered a 3-0 drubbing against Tottenham Hotspur in their last match at Old Trafford and have suffered losses against Brighton and Liverpool.

Ten Hag’s team has failed to hit the right boxes in the ongoing season but the Dutchman is optimistic of turning the tables.

“We are going to make a success from the season,” Ten Hag said in an interview with Sky Sports.

“Nothing is easy, but this is nothing for me to panic about,” he added. “We can sort [the problems] out, this team can sort this out.”

Ten Hag also added he is not worried about losing his managerial role with the club and has the backing of the owners.

“I’m not thinking about it, I’m not anxious,” he said. “We created a togetherness in the summer with the ownership and the leadership.

“We made this agreement, and we were all behind it. We know the strategy [is to bring in] young players in a transition period.

“They also know in May in all my last six seasons there were always trophies and that is what we are aiming for.”

Meanwhile, since Ten Hag’s arrival at Old Trafford, United has won the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup. The Dutchman is confident of finding more success with the club despite a tottering start.

“From the moment I came in, we knew we had to change. We had to replace some older players,” he said.

“Our choice was to bring young players in and that takes time to get the messages on board, to get a game model on board and to introduce a new culture. That takes time. In the meantime, you have to win and I think we have proven in the last two years that we win.

“I’ve proven in my career that always I will win. The last six years I have eight trophies.”

United will face Porto on Thursday in the UEFA Europa League.
