The former Manchester United manager was turned down by Bundesliga Giantsto, who replaced Xabi Alonso ahead of the new campaign. He endured a tough start to his life in Germany, and the 2024 champions have yet to win the league game.<\/p>\n<p>Ten Hag began his reign in victory over the fourth tier Minnows Sonnenhof Grossaspach in the first round of DFB-Pokal. He then oversaw a narrow defeat to Hoffenheim. Hoffenheim came from behind to take on a 2-1 victory following Jarrell Kuanza&#8217;s early opening match. Leverkusen continued to give up a two-goal lead against Werder Bremen on Saturday, eventually settling in a 3-3 draw.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>It is now reported that Kicker is at risk of being fired just three months after Ten Hag is appointed manager. The situation is described as &#8220;very important,&#8221; and the Dutch are believed to be facing a large-scale internal scrutiny.<\/p>\n<p>Once the summer transfer period is closed, the club&#8217;s chief is said to have solid decisions about Ten Hag&#8217;s future. It suggests he could be fired as early as Monday evening, and Leverkusen has yet to inform their final verdict.<\/p>\n<p>It prompted them to take responsibility for the poor start of the season after being torn apart by his players following a draw with 55-year-old Wolfsberg.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>He said: &#8220;The players are not ready. There are new teams and some of the players are not well suited to play. The teams didn&#8217;t work at all at the end of the game, and that&#8217;s exactly what it is.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They need to bring more strength and get fitters to meet my standards. After an international break, we have to face real competition and perform as a team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt starts with taking responsibility and delivering individual performances, and they have to show me what they want to work with.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;First, you have to have players. There have been some major changes. A lot has changed in the leadership and hierarchy of the team. Now, new players need to step up. Today it didn&#8217;t work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Leverkusen captain Robert Andrich made some awful comments in a post-match interview, complaining about the team&#8217;s lack of spirit and lack of cohesion.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This has nothing to do with anxiety or player changes,&#8221; he said. &#8220;But rather, with the team on the pitch. We have too many people who are obsessed with other things.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have too many people who are only interested in ourselves. Everyone is playing with themselves. Everyone has run around the pitch on their own.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For the latest broken stories and headlines, sign up for the Daily Express Transfer Newsletter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2102512\/Erik-ten-Hag-Bayer-Leverkusen-Man-Utd\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Germany reports that Eric Ten Hag is about to be fired by Bayer Leverkusen after just two league matches.
