Lee Sharpe has told Erik ten Hag to improve three things on the pitch if he wants to avoid the Manchester United sack this season.

“I think they obviously need to stop letting other teams create so many chances and scoring so many goals,” the former United winger told Express Sport on behalf of Safest Casino Sites.

“The goal difference last year was a bit of a shambles. They need to be a little bit more clinical and composed in front of goal because they create a lot of chances but don’t put the chances away.

“And there’s got to be more consistency in games. We’ve seen that they can show brilliance in certain parts of games and then really struggle in the same game that they’ve been dominant in.

“So I think consistency in games, score more goals and don’t let as many in. It’s pretty basic football knowledge.

“And as far as where the team finishes, the manager has shown he can win cups, so I want another good cup run.

“I think he’s already come out and said top four is not imperative, but I think they obviously will be chasing that.

“I just [want] more consistent and better performances throughout the season, and he keeps his job.”
