Erik ten Hag SLAMMED for moment he had with Man Utd player during Twente draw

Erik ten Hag SLAMMED for moment he had with Man Utd player during Twente draw

Erik ten Hag has been criticised for what he did during Manchester United's draw with Twente.

Erik ten Hag has been slammed for a moment he had with a Manchester United player during their disappointing draw against Twente.

Man United began their Europa League campaign with a 1-1 draw with Twente on Wednesday.

Christian Eriksen opened the scoring before committing a mistake that saw Sam Lammers lash home to earn his side a point at Old Trafford.

Ten Hag rang the changes in a bid to turn the game around as he brought on Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund.

Not to mention Alejandro Garnacho, with Dutch legend Ruud Gullit hitting out at Ten Hag for talking to him just before the winger entered the fray.

"I saw Erik ten Hag talking to Garnacho all the time," he said. "The only thing a player is thinking during a moment like that is: 'Dude, leave me alone'."

Garnacho replaced Amad Diallo in the 67th minute but was unable to inspire the Red Devils to victory.

On how they played, Gullit added: "I am not surprised by the football Manchester United showed tonight. Why not? Because we are used to it by now... How many millions did Erik ten Hag invest in his team again?"

It's now back-to-back draws across all competitions for Man United as Ten Hag bemoaned his side's second-half showing against Twente.

"We kept them alive, 1-0 up, controlling the game - you have to be consistent and keep going," he told TNT Sports. "In the second half, we dropped the level [and] gave the goal away.

"We didn’t finish it off; we had to go for the second goal, and so they stay alive, and we get punished with a mistake from ourselves."

Man United, who are 11th in the Premier League table, resume their league campaign on Sunday when they host Tottenham.
