Fans bought into his vision\u00a0and\u00a0players showed willingness to fight for their manager despite a slow start to his journey.<\/p>\n<p>However, as we approach the end of his second campaign at United, the\u00a0huge\u00a0cracks are starting to show\u00a0and\u00a0Ten Hag is not\u00a0even\u00a0guaranteed to remain the\u00a0side&#8217;s\u00a0manager beyond this summer.<\/p>\n<p>The atmosphere is no better in the dressing room, with a report from <a href=\"https:\/\/premierleaguebrasil.com.br\/premier-league-bastidores-ineditos-crise-manchester-united\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Premier League Brasil<\/a> detailing how his methods and decisions are irking his players.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, the way the former Bayern Munich youth coach prepares for matches is\u00a0&#8220;the subject of complaints&#8221;\u00a0in the United dressing room,\u00a0largely\u00a0due to his tendency to hold tactical meetings in an\u00a0&#8220;unusual&#8221;\u00a0way.<\/p>\n<p>It is claimed his pre-game meetings are long, lasting as much as 40 minutes. To make matters worse, they are held &#8220;three or four times&#8221; weekly. This has supposedly both bothered and surprised his players, even leading to drowsiness in some instances.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe players do not assimilate Ten\u00a0Hag&#8217;s\u00a0instructions.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0a difficult and tiring method,\u201d\u00a0the outlet states.<\/p>\n<p>It is a norm for managers\u00a0these days\u00a0to control every action on the pitch, as such detailed and long tactical meetings should not be the stick to beat the 54-year-old manager\u00a0with.<\/p>\n<p>However, the fact that even this is not translating into positive results paints a worrying picture for Ten Hag.<\/p>\n<p>The Red Devils have played a frustrating brand of football all season, boasting a goal difference of minus three. They are likely to miss out on all European competitions for the next term, and there is little hope his side will be able to beat Manchester City at Wembley in the FA Cup final.<\/p>\n<p>And now,\u00a0with\u00a0his players also allegedly losing confidence in his methods, it seems the end is near for Ten Hag at United.<\/p>\n<p><HR><br \/>\n<em>Want to be the first to hear breaking Man United news?
