JAKARTA - Former Manchester United assistant coach Benni McCarthy also opened his voice regarding the depravity of Manager Erik ten Hag.

He joined the pressure on Ten Hag after Manchester United lost 0-3 to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend. The result became the peak of the minor performance of the Red Devils which made many people furious.

McCarthy put the top three points regarding his former boss, which was less enthusiastic, squandered Cristiano Ronaldo, and admitted that it was not easy to lead the team.

"He was less excited and less excited. That's where we were different, he and I. I think it's one of the difficulties facing the team and the players."

"Before I join the team, I always have to convey my thoughts to the head coach, which is normal."

"For someone like me, with strong faith, it's not easy. Erik always has a final decision," McCarthy told Zero Zero.

McCarthy also talked about Cristiano Ronaldo's broken relationship with Ten Hag.

The Portuguese player returned to Old Trafford in 2021. However, he left less than 18 months later after a dispute with Ten Hag.

Ronaldo has recently criticized Ten Hag's lack of ambition. However, the former Ajax Amsterdam coach even mocked CR7 by calling 'Ronaldo far in Saudi Arabia'.

"If we work as a team and then let Cristiano do what he needs to do in his position, it would be ideal. You see, he is the best in the world in that regard."

"I think Manchester United have wasted a great opportunity to use Cristiano in the right way."

"However, I am not the head coach and I cannot be the one to make the decision," McCarthy said again.

Erik Ten Hag Failed To Manage Stars

Benni McCarthy implicitly wants to say that Erik ten Hag doesn't have enough capacity to manage top players at Manchester United.

In fact, according to him, the composition of the current squad is hot. Many players stand out in the team, but the Indonesian Ten Hag is bad.

McCarthy said Manchester United were lucky to have Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot. Then, he didn't forget to include the names of Leandro Martinez, Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, and Amad Diallo.

"Lisandro Martinez. He has passion, fighting spirit, personality. He can play for any team in the world because he has the right mentality."

"Besides Leandro, there's Marcus Rashford. He's back to his best form and could hurt FC Porto later."

"Finally, Alejandro Garnacho. I really like Garnacho, but he needs to play more regularly."

"I don't know if there's a problem between him and Erik, but he's not yet a regular starting player."

"Oh, one more thing, Amad Diallo. An amazing player. He defended and attacked well, always made the best decisions, and knew how to score goals," said Benni McCarthy.

McCarthy spent two years as Ten Hag's assistant before he left in the summer.

In his story, McCarthy had revealed that Ten Hag's passion was not the same as him. In fact, Manchester United is one of the big teams in the world.

That's one of the factors that made McCarthy decide to step down as an assistant.
