'Had to check it wasn't a troll account' - Man Utd fans shocked as Erik ten Hag named November Premier League Manager of the Month

Manchester United was the only team without a loss, with a perfect winning record and victories in all three of their games against Everton, Fulham, and Luton Town. They were also the only team to remain goalless for the whole month. Despite this, the team's terrible Champions League form and off-field turmoil has given the feeling that the Red Devils are in crisis. Fans had to double-check the official announcement as they couldn't believe the Dutchman's selection.

This is Ten Hag's third manager of the month after he won it in September 2022 and February 2023. His defender, Harry Maguire, also won the Premier League Player of the Month. The former captain of the side won back the Dutch coach's approval after he was originally transfer-listed in the summer.

Manchester United legend Sir Alex Ferguson is the only manager to have won the prestigious award more than the Dutchman. He received the gong a record 27 times for the Red Devils, the last of which came in October 2012.

The Dutchman's side will now be in action when they take on Bournemouth on Saturday, December 9 as they look to continue their winning run in the Premier League. The Red Devils may look to rest the side and focus on their clash against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
