Ten Hag: If you have football knowledge, you will understand Man Utd’s difficulties

Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans are the latest two defenders to join Man Utd’s injury list.

`It’s very difficult,` Ten Hag said before the match against Bournemouth in round 33 of the Premier League.

Coach Erik ten Hag directed during Man Utd’s 2-2 draw with Liverpool in round 32 of the Premier League at Old Trafford on April 7.

In the context of crisis, Ten Hag feels relieved to still own Harry Maguire – who refuses to leave in the summer of 2023 despite being stripped of the captaincy.

`We are always satisfied with Maguire, and of course he always wants to play,` said Ten Hag.

Man Utd lost because of late goals in the last three matches in the Premier League, drawing with Brentford, Liverpool and losing to Chelsea.

Earlier this week, the owner of Old Trafford announced that John Murtough would step down after nearly 11 years at the club in many different roles.

Ten Hag will miss the support and wish good luck to Murtough, but affirms that Man Utd must quickly find a replacement heading into the 2024-2025 season.

According to Ten Hag, the duo of striker Marcus Rashford and midfielder Scott McTominay left open the possibility of playing against Bournemouth, but will certainly return in time for the match against Coventry in the FA Cup semi-finals on April 21.
