Murphy Explains Why Manchester United Should Sack Ten Hag This Summer

Former England midfielder Danny Murphy has said he would be surprised if Manchester United do not sack Erik ten Hag this summer. Murphy believes that although the Dutchman has delivered the FA Cup, he has failed too many times to retain his job as Man Utd manager.

Erik ten Hag Has Bested Pep Guardiola In FA Cup Final
