Gary Neville insists the Manchester United job is a graveyard for managers and Erik ten Hag is doing no worse than another boss could. Ten Hag is under increasing pressure following another loss but Neville claims problems above him at the club are to blame.<\/p>\n
United suffered their sixth defeat of the season on Tuesday. The Red Devils went down 3-2 against Galatasaray in the Champions League despite leading on two occasions.<\/p>\n
Ten Hag’s side have lost both matches in Europe as well as four of their seven Premier League outings. It is their worst start in the first 10 matches of a season across all competitions in 37 years.<\/p>\n
But Neville is not pointing the finger at the manager. He says problems at the club in the last 10 years have constantly seen top players fail to perform at their previously high standards.<\/p>\n

Asked about United’s start to the season, Neville told talkSPORT: “Scruffy, very scruffy.<\/p>\n “Up and down, inconsistent, injuries and lots of things going wrong on the pitch, lots of things going wrong off the pitch. I feel very sorry for the manager, I know a lot of people will say he\u2019s got to do a lot better, and that\u2019s fine, he\u2019s the Manchester United manager, but there are a lot of big problems at the club that managers have found over the last ten years.<\/p>\n “I think until those problems are solved we\u2019ll still continue to see underperforming teams, underperforming players. It\u2019s become a graveyard for coaches and players, I said that a few years ago \u2013 it\u2019s not too strong a term.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

They were all great players when they came to the club, they were all wanted by other clubs a lot of them.<\/p>\n “They won these players off other clubs and then they end up coming to Manchester United and they end up not succeeding and not performing to their levels, why is that? It\u2019s because it\u2019s not culturally correct to accept players in the way that it should do and we need to get that right.”<\/p>\n Despite Neville’s view, Ten Hag has taken full responsibility for recent results and has promised to do all he can to turn it around. He said: “I am responsible for this team, for the performance, for the result, together with my squad and in this moment we don’t get the results and [the fans] are disappointed, I can understand.”<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Man-Utd-news-Gary-Neville-Erik-ten-Hag-4993989.jpg?r=1696428187974\")
