'Defeat against Chelsea marks the end of Erik ten Hag.'

On the day Manchester United suffered a shocking upset loss to Chelsea. British media 90 minutes predicted the dismissal of Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag and commented.

Manchester United lost 3-4 to Chelsea in the 31st round of the 2023-2024 English Premier League (EPL) at Stampede Bridge in London on the 5th (Korea time).

By the end of regular time, they had a 3-2 lead and looked as if Manchester United would win with ease. However, they fell apart miserably when Cole Palmer set up back-to-back goals in the 10th and 11th minutes of stoppage time. Palmer equalized a penalty kick from Noni Madueke in the 6th minute and scored a dramatic left-footed goal from the right side of the penalty area in the final minute. Palmer also scored his team's second goal in the 19th minute, scoring a hat-trick of the day.

Manchester United has only one win, one draw and three losses in the recent five league games. It is ranking sixth with 48 points (15 wins, three draws and 12 losses). The team is 11 points shorter than Aston Villa (59 points), which is the last team in the Champions League next season. It is not easy to compete with the best club in Europe.

'90 min wrote 'Ten Hag's United continue to have bad habits' and 'saw a very serious and out-of-control situation at Stampford Bridge.' Still, he said 'Manchester United lost 17 (official games) in a season for the first time since the 1989-1990 season.' 'Due to a lack of concentration, weak mentality, set-piece defense, non-existent midfielders, etc., Ten Hag's United will be in the top five in Europe in 2024. We allowed the most shots in the league.'

According to the Guardian, "We played great soccer and scored a great goal, but we didn't manage the game well during extra time in the second half," adding, "We didn't fully respond (to Palmer's situation). We need to make better decisions. I don't know when to maintain the ball, when to pass and move, and how to change my play when I'm winning."

"We made personal mistakes and lost the result," he said. "Any Manchester United player will know how to deal with the situation," he said. "We lost five points in five days. This is unacceptable," he said angrily.
