With eight defeats in 15 games, they are struggling in both the Premier League and the Champions League.

And a 3-0 loss to Newcastle on Wednesday saw them crash out of the Carabao Cup.

Ten Hag is now under increasing pressure at Old Trafford.

And many fans have started to lose faith in the Dutchman.

However, former Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor believes at least five or six PLAYERS also want him to leave.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Agbonlahor said: “You look at Manchester United now, you can name five or six players that would like Ten Hag to get fired so they can get a better chance under a new manager.

“Players will talk about it. I think he’s got one more game, I do, I think he’s got one more game.

“Then when a new manager comes in, everyone’s brought in. Players that weren’t involved are brought in.”

United officials reportedly have two major doubts about Ten Hag amid the club’s turmoil.

The manager’s intensity, which was widely seen as a positive last season, is now being viewed as a problem.

And some of his in-game decisions have also caused a stir among the squad.

Despite Man Utd’s poor run of form, there are currently no plans to sack Ten Hag.
