Piers Morgan has reignited his feud with Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag after the club’s decision to sign a sponsorship deal with chemical company INEOS. Morgan, a lifelong Arsenal fan, has been a vocal critic of ten Hag since his appointment at Old Trafford, and he took to Twitter to express his disapproval of the INEOS deal. “This is a disgrace. Man United selling their soul to a chemical company,” Morgan tweeted. “Ten Hag is a complete fraud. He knows nothing about football.” Ten Hag has not yet responded to Morgan’s comments, but the pair have a history of feuding. In October 2022, Morgan branded ten Hag a “disgrace” after United’s 6-3 defeat to Manchester City. The INEOS deal is a significant one for Manchester United, as it is worth a reported £400 million over the next 10 years. The company’s logo will appear on the club’s shirts from the start of the 2023-24 season. INEOS is owned by British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe, who is a lifelong Manchester United fan. Ratcliffe is also the chairman of chemical company INEOS Group.Piers Morgan Mocks Manchester United’s Decision to Keep Erik ten Hag

Piers Morgan Mocks Manchester United’s Decision to Keep Erik ten Hag

Arsenal fan and TV personality Piers Morgan has criticized the news that Manchester United will keep faith in Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman has faced intense scrutiny over his future at Old Trafford after leading the club to their worst top-flight season in 30 years. Despite finishing in eighth place and outside the Champions League places, United secured European qualification by defeating Manchester City in the FA Cup final. However, Morgan believes that this achievement is not enough to save ten Hag’s job. “Brilliant!” Morgan tweeted, adding three laughing and applauding emojis. “Ten Hag is winless in his last three games against Arsenal since their victory in September 2022.” Morgan is not the only one to criticize ten Hag’s performance. Former Chelsea and Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino was linked with the United job, and Gareth Southgate was also rumored to be a potential successor. However, United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS have opted to keep ten Hag in his role. Sources at INEOS reportedly recognize ten Hag’s achievement in winning two trophies in two seasons. They have given him a vote of confidence to continue as manager. Morgan’s attack on ten Hag is not the first time he has targeted the manager. Earlier in May, he suggested that the problems at United lie with ten Hag’s inability to handle world-class players. Morgan’s latest comments have reignited the debate over ten Hag’s future. With three disappointing results against Arsenal since their victory in September, it remains to be seen whether the Dutchman can turn things around at Old Trafford.Piers Morgan has reignited his feud with Erik ten Hag, taking a brutal dig at Manchester United following the club’s decision to reject a takeover bid from INEOS. The former Good Morning Britain host, who has been a vocal critic of Ten Hag since the Dutchman took over at Old Trafford, suggested that the Glazer family’s decision to spurn INEOS’ offer was a sign of their lack of ambition. “Manchester United fans must be wondering what the point is anymore,” Morgan wrote in his column for The Sun. “The Glazers have shown time and again that they are not interested in investing in the club, and now they have rejected a bid from a group of wealthy investors who were prepared to put their money where their mouth is.” Morgan went on to claim that Ten Hag is “out of his depth” at United and that the club is “going backwards” under his leadership. “Ten Hag has had plenty of time to turn things around, but he has failed to make any progress,” Morgan added. “The team is still playing poorly, and the results are not getting any better. It’s time for the Glazers to admit that they have made a mistake and bring in a new manager who can actually get the club back on track.” Morgan’s comments are likely to further anger Ten Hag, who has already been critical of the pundit’s outspoken views on Manchester United. It remains to be seen whether Morgan’s latest dig will have any impact on Ten Hag’s future at Old Trafford, but it is clear that the feud between the two men is far from over.
