Jamie O’Hara has called on Manchester United to replace Erik ten Hag with Ruud Van Nistelrooy after their defeat against West Ham United.
The Red Devils suffered another surprise defeat, this time against Julen Lopetegui’s struggling West Ham side.
Man United were 1-0 down against the Hammers when Casemiro brought them back into the game but referee David Coote awarded a late, controversial penalty to the Hammers which Jarrod Bowen stepped up to take and scored.
The defeat has left Man United in 14th position in the league and after nine league games this season, they have managed to win just 11 points.
It is still early in the season but Man United are now 12 points behind league leaders Manchester City.
O’Hara feels that Ten Hag’s time at the club is up and he should be replaced by assistant manager Van Nistelrooy, who is adored by the fans after enjoying a successful spell at the club as a player.
Speaking on Sky Sports, the former Tottenham midfielder said:
“Nine games and in [United] are 14th in the table….come on, this is Man United.
“You can almost accept if they’re ninth, you know, [being] in the top half and it hasn’t quite happened. They’ve lost four games already this season – they’ve played nine.”
O’Hara made the claim about sacking Ten Hag and bringing in Van Nistelrooy.

“They should have got something from the game today but overall they’ve been poor. I’ve watched them in the Europa League as well and they’ve been poor.”
