LONDON. – Manchester United bosses have finally sacked Erik ten Hag… but even then they’ve been left with egg on their faces.

The Dutchman, 54, has long been under-fire after an unimpressive tenure at Old Trafford.

Ten Hag was expected to be sacked in the summer after leading United to a record-worst EIGHTH in the Premier League.

He survived by the skin of his teeth in part thanks to winning the FA Cup, but perhaps more due to the lack of options on the manager market.

But rather than just keep Ten Hag – whose original contract was due to expire next summer – bungling United chiefs offered Ten Hag improved terms, including an additional year on the contract.

It’s believed it will cost Man Utd a staggering £15MILLION to sack him.

And that number would have been roughly half that had they not offered him a fresh contract in the summer.

So what exactly did Man Utd get for that extra £7million or so? Well, how about 14th place in the Premier League with just three wins from nine games averaging 1.2 points per game?

How about ZERO wins from three Europa League games? – The Sun
