New Manchester United minority owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe has said that manager Erik ten Hag was actually doing too much last season.<\/p>\n

He said the Dutchman struggled at the club last season, as the Premier League giants finished eighth position in the league.<\/p>\n

Ten Hag finished third in his first season in debut season at Old Trafford, won the EFL Cup and played the FA Cup.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils would have finished outside the European places but managed to beat Manchester City 2-1 in the FA Cup final which gave them a place in UEFA Europa League.<\/p>\n

The FA Cup win over Manchester City kept Ten Hag at the Old Trafford helm after the hierarchy was widely reported to be scouting for replacements.<\/p>\n

Ratcliffe has now revealed why the former Ajax boss struggled last season.<\/p>\n

He told The Times, \u201cErik is a good guy and has been doing his best but doing too much.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was trying to sort out the squad and fix leaks in the roof at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n
