WHAT HAPPENED?
The Red Devils have had a nightmare start to the 2024-25 campaign as they currently find themselves 14th in the Premier League and have lost four times in their first nine outings. Last month, United played Tottenham in a Premier League clash and went down 3-0 at home. The players were thoroughly criticised for their lack of effort on the pitch as Ange Postecoglou's side bulldozed past Erik ten Hag's team.
Getty ImagesTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Now, former United defender Patrice Evra has revealed that he had a chat with legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson during the Spurs clash, where they discussed the shortcomings of the current squad. The Frenchman claims Ferguson said he would have punished his players had they delivered such a terrible performance under his leadership.
WHAT PATRICE EVRA SAID
On Rio Ferdinand's podcast Rio Presents, Evra said: "The first half against Tottenham, I text Sir Alex Ferguson. I said: 'Boss, imagine we didn't press for 45 minutes. What are you going to do?' He said: 'I'm going to fine you at least a month's wages.'"
Getty Images SportWHAT NEXT FOR MANCHESTER UNITED?
The club finally decided to part ways with Ten Hag on Monday, a day after they suffered yet another defeat against West Ham. Ruud van Nistelrooy will serve as the team's interim coach until the club finds a candidate for the permanent manager's role.
