Jamie Carragher has launched a blistering attack on Erik ten Hag's Manchester United, declaring the club has reached a point where they must part ways with the Dutch manager immediately.
The Liverpool legend didn't hold back in his assessment following United's disappointing 1-1 draw with Burnley, a result that leaves them languishing in sixth place and facing the prospect of missing European football altogether next season.
'No Identity' Under Ten Hag
Carragher was particularly scathing about United's lack of direction under Ten Hag, telling Sky Sports: "The reason I'm so strong on that is there's been no improvement. You can feel it during the game, there's almost like an acceptance. We're watching the same game, the same performance, week in, week out."
He continued his damning verdict: "There's no identity, there's no style of play. I've been there at the start of the season when they're playing Wolves, and you're thinking, 'How have they won that game?' And I still feel the same."
The Amorim Alternative
With pressure mounting on Ten Hag, Sporting Lisbon manager Ruben Amorim has emerged as the frontrunner to replace him. The 39-year-old Portuguese coach was recently in London for talks with West Ham but remains the preferred candidate for many at Old Trafford.
Carragher's comments come at a critical time for United's hierarchy, who face a monumental decision about the club's future direction after another underwhelming campaign.
Statistical Nightmare
The numbers make for grim reading for United supporters. The Red Devils have now conceded a staggering 82 shots in their last four matches alone, raising serious questions about Ten Hag's tactical approach and the team's defensive organisation.
With just four Premier League games remaining and European qualification hanging by a thread, time is running out for Ten Hag to salvage his position at the Theatre of Dreams.
