Erik Ten Hag, coach of Manchester United, complained today about the football calendar and assured, in the preview of tomorrow’s Europa League match against Twente at Old Trafford, that “there are too many games and too much competition”.
The Dutch coach’s comments are the result of a serious knee injury they suffered at the weekend. Rodrigo Hernandez (Manchester City), Marc-André ter Stegen (Barcelona) and Yerson Mosquera (Wolverhampton)to miss the rest of the season.
“there is a limit”
“Too many fights, that’s for sure. Too much competition,” said Ten Hag. “Maybe it’s good in the commercial part, but there is a limit. It’s almost inevitable that the players get injured, due to the overload of matches.”
The United coach launched an SOS: “I think that a club alone cannot change this, it is more the responsibility of the entire industry. We are also professionals and the money has to come in, but we have to balance this.”
