Man United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe told he has made a “schoolboy error”

Kieth Wyness, who is the former chief of Premier League club Everton, feels that Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe made a schoolboy error at the club.

Wyness believes that Ratcliffe’s decision to allow manager Erik ten Hag increase his backroom staff is a mistake and it is going to cost the club in the future.

Ten Hag faced an uncertain future at the club in the summer but the Red Devils decided to show faith in the Dutch manager and kept him at the club. After doing that, they allowed him to bring his assistant managers.

He made the decision to hire former Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy and Dutch manager Rene Hake as his assistant managers.

After a poor start to the new season, questions have been raised about Ten Hag and his decision making, whether it is for team selection or for recruitment.

Wyness told the Football Insider:

“Don’t forget, it’s not just Ten Hag but his whole backroom staff.

“It’s a real Dutch contingent that he has hired.

“That’s the schoolboy error Jim Ratcliffe made. He allowed Ten Hag to put this big staff together even after the talk of him going at the end of last season.

“It’s a problem for Man United, how they negotiate that.
