Don’t sack Ten Hag – Van Gaal tells Man United
Former Manchester United manager, Louis van Gaal has urged the Red Devils not to sack current head coach Erik ten Hag.
Van Gaal wants Manchester United to give Ten Hag more time at Old Trafford.
Ten Hag’s future at Man United is uncertain despite winning the FA Cup last season.
There have been speculations that Man United could part ways with Ten Hag this summer.
“Yes of course (he should stay) but I also needed more time. I also won the FA Cup, and before me, 20 years nobody had won the FA Cup.
Erik is winning the FA Cup, the first year also (qualifying for the) Champions League so I don’t think you have to sack him. He needs more time,” Van Gaal, who managed Man United from July 2014 to May 2016, told Sky Sports.
“But I can also be more critical, he’s not done it fantastically, you can be with a lot of criticsm but he’s also shown he’s a good manager.”

Most popular ex-captain and head coach of the Super Eagles, Christian Chukwu, is dead.
He was 74.
The football legend reportedly passed away in the early hours of Saturday though the exact circumstances surrounding the situation remain unclear as of the time of filing this report.
His longtime teammate and friend, Dr. Olusegun Odegbami, confirmed the development.
Odegbami, who won the 1980 Africa Nation Cup with Chukwu, said: ‘I just received the news that between 9:00 and 10:00 this morning, “Chairman” Christian Chukwu, MFR, my bosom friend and teammate, one of the greatest football players in Nigeria’s history, has passed on’.
Born 4 January 1951, Chukwu had an illustrious career with Rangers captaining them to many laurels on the domestic football scene and led the Flying Antelopes to continental glory by winning the now rested African Cup Winners Cup in 1977.
