If a team is doing well, who are they going to appreciate? Is it not the head coach? As Manchester City is winning different trophies, who are people appreciating? Is it not Guardiola? So, as for Manchester United, as they are performing poorly, isn't it the work of Ten Hag? Because if he had been doing the right thing, I don't think Manchester United's performances would remain so weak. As a coach, you own almost every decision in the team, and nobody will question you.I don't think Ten Hag should blame Rashford for not performing well because he has the right to bench him. He has given Rashford many opportunities, but still, he is not improving. The best option is to bench him. How can a good coach keep playing a player that is not performing well? That means even Ten Hag might not know his job perfectly. As a coach, you don’t need to pity or treat any player like family because it will put your job at risk.
Fair observation on Arteta and Erik Ten Hag.
I think Erik Ten Hag deserves all the criticism pointed at him because it's not like he just joined the club as their manager. It's his third season here, and he has got a lot of backing from the club. High time he pays them back with good results, because there is a real scarce of proper results, and actual dominant performances coming from them. You see Sir Alex visiting the Old Trafford in a lot of matches with a
disappointed look on his face, which really sucks to see. What he developed is now shattered into pieces.

As for Arteta, I think he knows his job, and that’s the reason why he doesn’t tolerate any nonsense from any player. That is the best thing any coach should do. I think Arteta learned that from Guardiola. Once a coach discovers that a player is no longer in good form, the best thing is to replace him with another player, not give him too many opportunities to see whether he will improve. If a coach continues like that, the player will think he is doing well, and that’s why the coach continues using him. But when he starts sitting on the bench for a long time, he will surely work on himself if he is serious.
About Arteta, I think he is definitely a good manager, but his personality sometimes baffles me. I won't ever say that Arteta is not good enough as a coach, but I think he says some things and does some things that doesn't really look good on someone who hasn't really won anything as a manager. I think he has to win a lot more to have such a prideful ego, but yes, as a manager, he is really doing good right now. I think he will make Arsenal a trophy winner real soon.
