DEVASTATING NEWS: Coming From Fabrizio Romano, Old Trafford On Fire After Sir Jim Ratcliffe Lashes Out On Man United Star In Clubs Dressing Room. “HE Needs The Leave My Club In Summer With Immediate Effect I Don’t Want To See Them Any Longer – Man United Co-Owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe Has Instructed Erik Ten Hag To Get Rid Of FLOP Player After Manchester United Loss To Arsenal. According To Reports Club Owner Not Happy With Star After His Terrible Performance Against Arsenal In The Premier League.
In a scathing critique, Rio Ferdinand has taken aim at Manchester United’s manager Erik ten Hag for his decision to deploy midfielder Casemiro in a defensive role, urging against persisting with such tactics.
During Sunday’s disheartening 1-0 defeat at home to Arsenal, Casemiro found himself stationed as a center-back alongside Jonny Evans, as the Red Devils grappled with a defensive injury crisis. The absence of key players like Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw, Raphael Varane, Viktor Lindelof, and Tyrell Malacia left United scrambling for defensive solutions.
Ferdinand argues that Casemiro is ill-suited for such responsibilities and offers alternative options such as Aaron Wan-Bissaka or Sofyan Amrabat. Expressing his discontent on his YouTube channel following United’s loss to Arsenal, Ferdinand questioned ten Hag’s decision, stating, “Why doesn’t Erik ten Hag take Casemiro out of the back line? Why can’t Sofyan Amrabat play there? Or Scott McTominay? I just don’t think it’s fair.”
The former defender emphasizes the need for early recognition of mistakes when players are thrust into unfamiliar positions, advocating for a return to their natural roles. He suggests deploying Wan-Bissaka at center-back and Amrabat at right-back as a more logical solution.
Ferdinand’s criticism extends beyond tactical decisions, highlighting deficiencies in coaching and creativity within the team. He points out lapses in decision-making and quality in the attacking phase, underscoring broader issues plaguing United’s season.
This season has been rife with disappointments for United, tallying 19 losses across all competitions, their highest since 1977-78. The nine defeats at Old Trafford match their most in a single season, while conceding 82 goals marks their highest since 1970-71.
With mounting pressure on ten Hag, evidenced by his terse response to a journalist after the defeat to Arsenal, the scrutiny on United’s managerial decisions and performance shows no signs of abating.
