Erik Ten Hag has put Manchester United in a sapped state, with the team downtrodden, out of sought, and virtually in comatose.

The Red Devils have become jaded and appear to be heading for the dungeon under the tutelage of the Dutchman.

The 2022/23 honeymoon season whet the appetite of fans for more, however, the 2023/24 season has left many fans of the club, with thoughts of Manchester United ending its union with Ten Hag.

The current season has been a horror show for the English giants, with the team looking dispirited, tepid, and showing of being incapable of rescuing themselves from the ditch they can be said to be in.

The Red Devils seemingly have no pathway to be rescued out of the mud they are in, with the team etching many bad records under the stewardship of Erik Ten Hag.

Manchester United hadn't lost 13 matches before Christmas since 1930 until Ten Hag came on board and reduced the team to a laughing stock.

Additionally, the Red Devils had not gone through a stretch of four matches in a row without scoring since 1992, until Erik Ten Hag came on board.

The former Ajax boss's stint at Old Trafford has turned out to be a nightmare in recent months, with the team garnering appalling records.

Manchester United had also not lost in two consecutive meetings with West Ham United since 2007 until the Dutchman showed up.

Heartbreaking to say the least, the club has been reduced to a level of nothingness, even amongst its rivals.

No Manchester United manager except Erik Ten Hag had shipped in 20 goals to Liverpool and Manchester City in his first 7 meetings with the rivals since Alfred Albut in the 1800s.

In the UEFA Champions League, these records have also reared its ugly head, with the team's faltering status being the reason for it.

Manchester United had never finished with as few as 5 points in the Champions League group stages until Erik Ten Hag took the helm of the English giants.

The team is currently floating in the abyss and will need a quaking redemption to get back to its glorious years.

Moreover, No English club had ever conceded 15 goals in the group stages of the UEFA Champions League until Ten Hag led Manchester United to do so in the 2023/24 season.

Manchester United had never been beaten in 4 of 6 Champions League group matches in the history of the competition, until the arrival of Erik Ten Hag.

The embarrassing and unfortunate records that Ten Hag's Manchester United have cooked up, are even present against smaller teams like Bournemouth.

Bournemouth had never picked up a win at Old Trafford until Erik Ten Hag became manager of the English side.

The Clarets had also never found the back of the net thrice at Old Trafford before Ten Hag picked up the mantle of leadership in the 2008 UEFA Champions League winners.

The Vitality stadium side had never shown enough vigor and guts to keep a clean sheet at the theater of dreams until Erik Ten Hag made it a reality due to his side's profligacy.

Alongside the damning and heart-wrenching records include Manchester United never losing 12 of their opening 23 matches in a season. Turkish giants Galatasaray had also not won a match in England in its over a century years of existence before they silenced the 20-time English top-tier league champions in the 2023/24 season under Erik Ten Hag.

Manchester United supporters are hoping for a ray of sunshine to dawn on the club, but they will need to resurrect and show guts in the face of adversity.

Definitely, tough decisions might be needed to get the team back to its glorious years, which continues to put the future of Erik Ten Hag under the spotlight.

The former FC Utrecht boss will need to fuel the fire of his side and get them back to producing mesmeric performances on the pitch - if he is unable to do so, the Ineos group definitely knows what's next.
