Louis van Gaal has told Manchester United to stick with Erik ten Hag - but admits his compatriot has caused some of his own problems.
Their wretched campaign did end on a high, though, as Ten Hag's side pulled off an FA Cup final shock by beating bitter rivals Manchester City 2-1 at Wembley last month. That's left the United fan base divided over the Dutchman's future and now former boss Van Gaal, who knows what it's like to be sacked by the Red Devils after an FA Cup final win, has offered Ten Hag his backing.
"Now Erik is winning the FA Cup and also first year qualifying for the Champions League so I don’t think you have to sack him. He needs more time but I can also be more critical. He has not done it fantastically - you can give criticism - but he has also shown he is a good manager."
