The Manchester United boss has had a tough start to the season.
Jamie O'Hara can't see how Erik ten Hag can sustain his position at Manchester United following another dismal weekend. 

Ten Hag's side were swept aside by a rampant Tottenham on Sunday, losing 3-0 to Ange Postecoglou's men and they'll be without Bruno Fernandes for the next three games after he saw red for his challenge on James Maddison. 

The defeat has put the pressure back on the Dutchman, and speaking to Grosvenor Sport, the former Tottenham midfielder thinks Ten Hag's time is almost up as United boss. 

“Erik ten Hag is a dead man walking!” he said.

“The writing is on the wall for him now at Manchester United, I cannot see how he will last much longer at the club. I said it at the start of the season, nothing can change at Man United with him in charge.

“He’s at least won a couple of trophies, he can walk away and hold his head high in that respect, but he isn’t changing the way that the club is going, they need to get back to where they are supposed to be as a club and get rid of him as soon as possible.

“I’m seeing the exact same Manchester United as last season, if not worse. The players know that this manager isn’t going to be there much longer, so they’ve downed tools. 

"They won’t get back to where they need to be with him there, the board need to stop wasting time and get rid of him because it won’t work.”
