Erik Ten Hag Decision Ruined Manchester United chances Of Winning Against Palace & It Has Been Proven 🗣 “Whole game changed in one moment and it’s on the manager.” 🗣 “This guy should not be in charge of our football club.” 🗣 “Them two pictures sum it up completely.” United were held to a 0-0 draw at Selhurst Park and fans have turned on their manager for what he did 😳
Manchester United fans believe that a pivotal decision by manager Erik ten Hag impacted the outcome of their match against Crystal Palace.
The Red Devils were unable to secure consecutive Premier League victories, finishing in a 0-0 stalemate against a resilient Palace side at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
Despite dominating possession and creating several opportunities, United struggled to score.
Meanwhile, Oliver Glasner’s squad had their own chances, with Eberechi Eze missing two key opportunities to grab the win.
In an effort to turn the game around, Ten Hag made substitutions in the second half, bringing on Marcus Rashford, Manuel Ugarte, and Rasmus Højlund to replace Joshua Zirkzee, Christian Eriksen, and Amad Diallo.
However, many United fans disagreed with the decision to substitute Dutch forward Zirkzee.
One fan commented on social media: “We lost our connection as soon as Zirkzee left the pitch. Shouldn’t have subbed him.”
Another wrote: “Zirkzee and Amad were creating chances. Bad choice of substitutions.”
A third supporter said: “Taking off Zirkzee changed the game. He should’ve stayed on.”
Another fan added: “Today’s subs didn’t work. Players like Zirkzee, Amad, and Eriksen, who can quickly move the ball, were replaced by Rashford, Højlund, and Ugarte.”
One more fan remarked: “Removing Zirkzee and Amad ended our attack completely.”
Another opinion was: “Subbing Zirkzee was a big mistake. He links up play and helps sustain attacks, which is crucial against a team sitting deep.”
Former Liverpool and Tottenham player Jamie Redknapp, speaking on Sky Sports after the match, commented: “When you control a game like that, you have to make it count. The substitutions didn’t make an impact, and United will feel disappointed.”
The draw leaves Manchester United in 11th place in the Premier League, with just seven points from their first five matches.
