<p><a href="https://x.com/SEG_Football/status/1852436698182861092" target="_blank">Posting on X</a> via his representation SEG Football, Ten Hag spoke for the first time about <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/erik-ten-hag-spotted-first-time-man-utd-sacking-hide-returning-netherlands/blt61a3d068c4c9a2b6" target="_blank">United's decision to end his tenure</a> after over two years managing the club.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/erik-ten-hag-devastated-completely-ruined-by-man-utd-firing-despite-17m-payout/blteac76273629dc255" target="_blank">Ten Hag was reportedly left 'completely devastated'</a> after the United hierarchy terminated his contract, although the reported £15 million payout the Dutch coach is set to receive would have presumably softened the blow somewhat. Still, it's clear the sacking has hit the 54-year-old hard, and many fans will be sympathetic after seeing his emotional goodbye message - especially given the shock FA Cup final victory over Manchester City earlier this year.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>In the statement, ten Hag wrote: "Dear fans, let me start by thanking you. Thank you for always being there for the club. Whether it was at a game far away or a tough match at Old Trafford, your support has been unshakeable. The atmosphere at Old Trafford has always been electrifying, thanks to you. I felt it many times." He continued: "I also want to thank the staff in every department of the club for their unwavering support in good times and bad. We won two trophies - achievements that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Of course, my dream was to bring more trophies to the cabinet. Unfortunately, that dream has come to an end. I wish all Manchester United fans nothing but success, trophies and glory. Your support and the warmth I received from everyone at the club helped me feel at home. Thank you for this chapter in my life. Erik."<a href="https://store.liverpoolfc.com/fashion/mens/retro-shirts-jackets?utm_medium=display&amp;utm_source=taboola&amp;utm_content=display-banner&amp;utm_campaign=ret-xmas-2425&amp;utm_proposition=retail&amp;utm_source=taboola&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;tblci=GiCB9y7uTlM9wnYF4CiGv34O2b4_tc5JkZo1FgceIqkNfSCHk2koqsOo5sCRk8z-ATDotj8#tblciGiCB9y7uTlM9wnYF4CiGv34O2b4_tc5JkZo1FgceIqkNfSCHk2koqsOo5sCRk8z-ATDotj8"><br></a></p>

WHAT TEN HAG SAID

<p>Reports have suggested that the former United boss <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/erik-ten-hag-retreat-austrian-hideaway-man-utd-sacking-destination-next-managerial-job/blt8328d076f5f6b095" target="_blank">has retreated to an Austrian hideaway</a> to reflect and get some well-earned rest and time away from the media. Meanwhile, his replacement Ruben Amorim will take the reins in arguably the most demanding and high-pressure job in football. With the Sporting CP coach set to take charge of the Red Devils on November 11, he has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/ruben-amorim-raid-sporting-cp-stars-man-utd-teen-sensation-geovany-quenda-replace-antony/blt84b5bf3c68145d7a" target="_blank">already started plotting his early transfers</a>.</p>
