Tensions Rise on the Sidelines

During Manchester United's recent match against Newcastle, manager Erik ten Hag was caught on camera berating Anthony Martial from the sidelines. The heated exchange between the two raised concerns among fans.

A Public Spat or a Strategic Move?

Ten Hag, however, was quick to clarify that his outburst was not personal. He stated that his intention was to energize the team and elicit a reaction from them during a difficult period. The Dutchman emphasized that it was about the team, not just Martial.

Another Incident in a Series of Clashes

This altercation between Ten Hag and Martial follows previous incidents involving Cristiano Ronaldo, Jadon Sancho, and the current freeze-out of Raphael Varane. Fans expressed their frustration, with some speculating about the future of these players at the club.

Criticism from a Pundit

TNT Sports pundit Jermaine Jenas criticized the team's lack of cohesion and unity, highlighting the raised arms and blame game culture within the squad. According to Jenas, Ten Hag recognizes the importance of a united front in order to secure victories.
