The s6-time African women's player of the year wants Erik ten Hag to be sacked from his job as Man United coach amid calls to 'trust the process'

Following Manchester United’s embarrassing 3-0 defeat to Tottenham, Super Falcons star Asisat Oshoala expressed her frustration with the club’s head coach, Erik ten Hag.

The six-time CAF Women’s player of the year winner did not hold back during a Q&A session on her official Snapchat, reacting fiercely to a fan’s question about United’s ongoing struggles in the new season.

Oshoala sarcastically referred to Ten Hag as a "yeye coach" (a Nigerian slang for ‘useless’ or ‘ineffective’), making it clear she was not impressed with his leadership.

In a now-deleted snap, she posted a stern photo of herself and added the message in a response to a follower:

The match on Sunday was a sensational disaster for Manchester United, as Tottenham comfortably secured a 3-0 win at Old Trafford, adding more pressure on Ten Hag.

Spurs started aggressively, with Brennan Johnson scoring early after just three minutes.

The hosts suffered a first half blow after Red Devils captain, Bruno Fernandes, was then sent off in the 42nd minute, leaving his team with a mountain to climb.

Tottenham capitalized on their weakened midfield, as Dejan Kulusevski doubled their lead early in the second half, before Dominic Solanke sealed the victory for Spurs.

 The result leaves Manchester United with three losses in their first six league matches, placing them in a precarious 11th position.

Ten Hag continues to sweat over his future with the Premier League giants despite re-affirming the board’s confidence in his leadership.

The 54-year-old Dutchman would be looking to bounce back from a disappointing weekend when they face Portuguese giants FC Porto in the Europa League on Thursday, October 3.
