Erik ten Hag’s Man United tactics left Casemiro unhappy last season

Casemiro was unhappy with the tactics of Erik ten Hag last season at Man United as the midfielder believed the Dutch coach’s game plans left him exposed. 

The 2023/24 campaign was a very difficult one for the Manchester club with the Red Devils finishing eighth in the Premier League, while also finishing bottom of their Champions League group. An FA Cup final win against rivals Man City saved Ten Hag from getting the sack and the former Ajax boss is under pressure once again having been hammered by Liverpool on Sunday.

Arne Slot’s men played with Man United at Old Trafford on their way to a 3-0 win and one of the major talking points from the match was Casemiro.

Slot admitted after the match that he wanted his team to press high to take advantage of United’s full-backs being high and out of position, which affected Casemiro.

The 32-year-old would have been frustrated with what happened against Liverpool and in the aftermath of the defeat, it has been revealed that the former Real Madrid star was frustrated with Ten Hag’s tactics last season as well.
