Although Teng Hage has been with Old Trafford for less than two seasons, Manchester United's bloody streak has never stopped.
Since taking over as the head coach of Manchester United, Teng Hage's iron fisted purge of Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, sending off De Gea to provoke Onana, depriving Captain Maguire of his armband, and expelling Sancho from the first team have sparked huge controversy both on and off the field, putting the Red Devils at the forefront of the controversy.
Last summer, Teng Hage came to Old Trafford with the momentum of being the "Dutch champions coach". Although Teng Hage once led Ajax's "Youth Storm" to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, his coaching experience is still not impressive in the face of traditional giants like Manchester United. On the other hand, Teng Hage has always been known for his "iron fists" in coaching. When facing the young players of Ajax, he can establish his authority very well. However, Manchester United's changing room is full of big names, and there are many people with thicker honor books than him. Therefore, how to establish his authority at Old Trafford is Teng Hage's primary problem to solve.
It can be said that the conflict between Tenghage and Cristiano Ronaldo erupted quite coincidentally. Firstly, after taking over Manchester United, Teng Hage, who has not had a glorious coaching history, urgently needs to persuade the outside world with his achievements. However, Cristiano Ronaldo, who happens to be at the end of his career, has significantly declined in his abilities in running, defense, and shooting, which clearly does not meet Teng Hage's requirements for high-level pressure, full attack, and full defense tactics. Secondly, Cristiano Ronaldo's achievements and honors, as well as his historical position at Manchester United, make it difficult for Teng Hager to fully control the locker room, and Ronaldo has a tendency to easily refuse to give up. Therefore, the conflict between the two is inevitable.
However, in the end, Cristiano Ronaldo and Manchester United broke up in such an embarrassing way, and Tenghag really needs to take some responsibility. It's understandable to have Cristiano Ronaldo serve as a substitute, but it's a bit embarrassing to have a top star who saved the team multiple times last season and was crowned the top scorer in the team appear during "garbage time". In addition, Manchester United's own traffic and the off field popularity of famous players have led to an irreversible relationship between the two sides.
When it comes to De Gea, I believe many Manchester United fans love and hate him. On the one hand, De Gea's outstanding goal line skills have saved the team multiple times in critical moments, making it an important cornerstone of Manchester United's defense; On the other hand, De Gea does not like to take the initiative, his passing ability is poor, and problems such as poor penalty kicks often affect the team's performance. In the end, Tenghage sent the Spanish goalkeeper away with De Gea's tactical system not in line with his requirements. Subsequently, Manchester United bought Cameroon goalkeeper Onana from Inter Milan at a high price. Judging from his performance in Serie A and the Champions League last season, Onana's transfer fee is not too outrageous. But awkwardly, Onana is also a former general of Tenghag. Since Teng Haige took over Old Trafford, he has signed many of his former players, among which the signing of "Mr. Billion" Anthony has made the outside world call Manchester United a "scapegoat". Furthermore, there are suspicions that Tenghag took kickbacks in the transaction.
After joining Manchester United, Onana did not show any performance that matched his value. Instead, he was criticized for scolding his teammates on the field and making several outrageous mistakes.
