Richard Keys dubs Erik ten Hag ‘Seven Hag’ and calls Wout Weghorst ‘the WORST EVER Man Utd player’

Richard Keys launched a bizarre attack on Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag as well as January signing Wout Weghorst following his 7-0 humiliation at Liverpool on Sunday.

United were stunned by their bitter rivals at Anfield, who handed an embarrassing defeat to the Old Trafford team just a week after winning the Carabao Cup.

But Keys has now criticized the Dutch manager after the defeat by calling him a ‘Seven’ Hag, as well as calling Weghorst the worst player in a Manchester United shirt.

The former Sky Sports presenter refused to fully condemn the ‘mess’ of United’s performance on Sunday, insisting it was unique. However, he criticized the Dutchman for ‘distanced’ from blame for the loss.

‘Now comes the real test though,’ Keys said on his blog. ‘How do United react? Will Seven Hag be able to get them to “play” rather than sit back and wait to storm the opposition with Rashford’s pace?

A quick word about the manager. I get the impression that he really wants to take credit when things go well, but it’s always someone else’s fault when they don’t go well. This time his players were ‘unprofessional’ and ‘didn’t stick to the plan’. In other words, don’t blame me, boss.

I would have preferred to hear him say ‘it’s unique’. It won’t happen again and it certainly won’t ruin the work we’ve all been doing.’ That would have been enough. Take it on the chin as a collective. He’s the one who complains United “didn’t stick together” but is distancing himself from him.

Keys continued her tirade by targeting Weghorst, who is on loan from Burnley until the end of the season.

Despite a largely mixed time since arriving in January, Keys criticized the striker for his inability to fit into United’s system and offering nothing to the Red Devils’ attack.

After all, it’s your [Ten Hag] decision to continue playing Wout Weghorst. It’s not Weghorst’s fault, but he has to be the worst player I’ve ever seen in a United shirt,” Keys added.

“He’s a run-of-the-mill No. 9, who couldn’t break into a struggling Burnley team, but what the hell does Seven Hag have to think he’s a sumptuous No. 10?

‘One who can ‘wear the tuxedo’ as the Americans say. Come on. It’s a joke and the manager needs to stop pretending that Weghorst has something to offer.

‘He is not a ‘pressing monster’. He doesn’t ‘run’ because he can’t run. And he doesn’t score goals. You can’t start it – push [Bruno] Fernandes left and left £80 million [Jadon] Sancho on the bench. Too smart Erik. Too smart.

Ten Hag was furious after United’s defeat on Sunday, arriving at training Monday at 7am and calling his players at 9am to show them videos of the beating.

Furthermore, the Dutch coach booked additional psychologist sessions for his players in a bid to rebuild their shattered confidence.

Following the result, he responded to questions about whether any of the United players had spoken to him by saying: When asked if his players had said anything to him, Ten Hag replied curtly: ‘No, I didn’t give them a chance. I have only given my opinion on it.

Meanwhile, Red Devils supporters have been left furious by Weghorst’s actions before a ball was kicked in Liverpool after footage emerged of a Red Devils fan touching the famous ‘This is Anfield’ sign as he left. of the tunnel.
