EPL: Manchester United applaud Ten Hag’s bold post-match speech, amidst rumours
Following Manchester United’s defeat to Brighton, sources have confirmed that boss Erik ten Hag received applauds for his post-match speech.
Also, contrary to the opinions held by many that there was a dressing room bust-up between some senior players after the match, sources from Old Trafford have confirmed that the opposite was the case.
The defeat to Brighton marked Manchester United’s third loss in their opening five Premier League games, raising concerns among fans and pundits.
However, there was no reported clash between captain Bruno Fernandes and Scott McTominay, as had been alleged.
Ten Hag, who had a promising first season at the helm, has faced various off-field issues at Old Trafford, alongside disappointing on-field performances.
The defeat to Brighton was particularly disheartening, as it meant the Red Devils have lost three of their first five matches, their first in the Premier League era.
In response to these challenges, Ten Hag was said to have gathered the players, giving a speech on the need to turn things around for better results.
The players reportedly appreciated the manager’s commitment to improving the team’s performance.
