Gascoigne wants Ferguson back at Man United. All out of sympathy for ten Hag
The recent troubles at Manchester United are often blamed on management or coaching, without considering that the players themselves might be part of the issue. Former England midfielder Paul Gascoigne has weighed in with his thoughts.
Details: Gazza acknowledged that even the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson would face challenges with United’s current squad and expressed a desire to see Ferguson take over for a season, shouldering the pressure placed on the team.
Quote: “It’s like me as a player, I knew I was good. And it doesn’t matter who I was up against, or replacing, for instance, no problem. To follow Alex Ferguson, a few of them, even José Mourinho didn’t last long, David Moyes not for long. Ten Hag, I feel sorry for him a bit.
I’d love Ferguson to take over just for one season and just see what he could do with those players because I think some of them take the piss out of ten Hag. You’ve got to give the man a bit of respect, and it’s such a massive club, I don’t think some of the players realise who they’re playing for,” Gascoigne told SportsCasting.
Reminder: Rumors about ten Hag’s potential departure are resurfacing, with recent reports suggesting that former Borussia Dortmund head coach Edin Terzić is being considered as a replacement.
