Erik ten Hag felt that relaxing his approach, such as guiding Antony through his thought process, would have undermined his authority with a squad that requires strong leadership.

It can be a political club and there are those who know the environment who suspect any sign of weakness from Ten Hag would see him at the “slaughter” of players. #mufc [laurie whitwell]

Casemiro and Raphael Varane spoke to team-mates about the similar approaches taken by Carlo Ancelotti and Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid, which gave players more freedom and greater agency on workload, and how Ten Hag’s positional style of football was not to their taste.

They were told by #mufc staff that Madrid is a completely different club to United and La Liga a slower competition with less strength in depth than the Premier League, so those same liberal techniques would not work.

Those familiar with the situation at Manchester United feel that player power has been a major issue at United for years and having senior professionals doubt the message from this latest manager planted seeds with others in the dressing room.

Alejandro Garnacho responded well to firm feedback, with Kobbie Mainoo described as a sponge for instruction by people with knowledge of the training environment. #mufc

United will now look to do business with Everton as they try to make Branthwaite their first summer signing, but must be wary of FFP rulings if they are to negotiate. It is expected that negotiations for the England man may take time and won’t be straightforward. #MUFC

Erik ten Hag did not seek other opportunities despite his future being threatened. Ajax showed great interest and he was on Bayern Munich's list, but he preferred to stay at Old Trafford. He wanted to succeed at the club.

Some discussions about recruitment and players to keep, like Varane, took place without Erik Ten Hag.

After participating in preparations for the 2024-25 season, Erik ten Hag was left out of some meetings after the defeat against Chelsea. #MUFC [The Athletic]

Manchester United will be BUSY in the transfer market in the coming weeks.

At left-back, Milos Kerkez is one of the players they really like.

The club need at least one new centre-back, it might be two - they may decide to sell a centre-back. Jarrad Branthwaite, Jean-Clair Todibo and Gleison Bremer are among several options being considered.

If Casemiro leaves, there is a chance for the club to sign a new midfielder.

At least one more striker will also join to replace Anthony Martial.

Erik ten Hag attempted to explain his point to Jadon Sancho in one meeting at Carrington and attempted to schedule another summit a few days later in which it was expected Sancho would apologise privately, face-to-face. But this did not happen.

Ten Hag felt Sancho was an incredible player but that his attitude did not correspond to a winning culture.

Jadon Sancho was known to be a free spirit on the pitch and around the training ground — a “cheeky chap” according to one person with knowledge of the environment — although capable of poor timekeeping and unsatisfactory responses to instructions on what to do in possession and on transition.

In Ten Hag's first season, he gave Jadon Sancho two months away from Manchester United to decompress.

But in his second season, when Sancho seemed to ignore assistant Mitchell van der Gaag in a session, Ten Hag felt he crossed a line, so he stepped in. #mufc

Erik ten Hag tried to get Ronaldo to press, not least because of his own ideals but also due to the wish from directors for a high-intensity style.

Ronaldo was coached on this time and again but he made minimal movements in training, according to people with direct knowledge of the sessions, leaving some staff to wonder if he understood.

There are people familiar with the situation at Manchester United who believe Ronaldo knew what was being asked yet failed to comply because he felt it was not the best use of his abilities or the way to win matches. [laurie whitwell]

🚨 A delegation headed by Sir Dave Brailsford flew to meet Erik ten Hag in Ibiza to talk things through properly and attempt to maintain mutual respect, in a relationship that had become severely tested, due to INEOS giving serious thought to making a change.

In the days following the 4-0 loss to Crystal Palace, INEOS considered sacking Erik ten Hag before the Arsenal game, and bringing in an interim manager who could spark an upturn in form, with the hope of getting European football.

Some discussions on recruitment happened without Erik ten Hag, such as the decision to let Raphael Varane's contract expire at the end of this month.

INEOS started their discussions over a new manager with a particular profile in mind - a young head coach who plays attractive football and would work in a structure. Creating a good culture was also seen as important, hence why some at INEOS were supportive of Gareth Southgate. [Laurie Whitwell]
