Erik ten Hag has found himself on the receiving end following his post-match comments after Manchester United's defeat to Bayern Munich.

United were stunned 1-0 by the Bundesliga giants in their final Group A match of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night.

According to Sky Sports, Kingsley Coman scored the only goal of the match for Bayern as the Red Devils were eliminated from the competition.

Having won only once in their last five group matches, United needed nothing short of a victory to stand any chance of qualifying for the last 16.

"Erik Ten Hag will never be my coach."

"Worse than Solskjaer. I wonder if his agent has found him a new club for when he gets sacked."

@Frenchy_85 fumed:

"The ‘learn from it’ quote again 🤦‍♂️"

@RYANGIBSON79 concluded:

"Not got a clue what he’s talking about. Better to say nothing sometimes if you ain’t going to speak the truth."

Meanwhile, United will be looking to bounce back to winning ways when they play rivals, Liverpool in the Premier League this weekend.
