'Pep is no longer the best manager in Manchester': Confident Man United fans back new boss Erik ten Hag to restore the club to its former glory

Manchester United fans have reacted with joy after the club confirmed Erik ten Hag as their new manager – and have urged him to get rid of captain Harry Maguire as his first port of call.

United officially confirmed the Dutchman as their new boss on Thursday and will take over from interim boss Ralf Rangnick at the end of the season.

The 52-year-old agreed a three-year deal to become the new Red Devils boss and the news has left United fans full of hope following his appointment, with many urging the Old Trafford club to back him once he begins his new role.
