“We’ll never play Ajax Football at Man United” — Erik ten Hag vows

Latest entertainment gist

Don’t count on me to play exciting football at Manchester United, former Ajax boss, Erik ten Hag advises Man United fans.

Manchester United boss, Erik ten Hag has squashed whatever hopes the United fanbase may have of seeing high pressing football at Old Trafford with his recent statement to the media.

The Dutchman who was famous for inspiring some great attacking play while at Ajax, vows that Manchester United will never see that kind of play as long as he is manager of the club.

Addressing his critics in the interview, Erik ten Hag spoke candidly on why the Man United fanbase should not expect what he did at Ajax over in the premier league.

The Dutch manager said;

“Never. We will never play that football. Because those were different players. This is also not why I came here.”

“We are playing different football than I showed at Ajax because I have to—and I can’t play the same way.”

Erik ten Hag goes on to explain the reason behind his statement, stating;

“The players decide how you play. Ajax has a very typical and characteristic style of play, with Manchester United I will always show different football, I did so last year as well.”

He also shed light on the specific style of play he has adopted at Manchester United, stating,

“We play much more direct football here because I have the players for that at United.”

Erik ten Hag‘s comments may be a direct criticism on Manchester United’s hierarchy, and perhaps a cry for help.

“My dad Wizkid is not the one begging for pussy” — Son

Latest entertainment gist

When it comes to savage responses, the Baloguns specifically those related to Wizkid by blood, are not to be trifled with and being Davido does not save you from such.

In a recent social media exchange, 13-year-old Boluwatife Balogun, the eldest son of renowned Nigerian artiste Wizkid, threw some savage response at his father’s rival, David Adeleke following their online spat.

Facing some online banter from a Davido fan, Boluwatife Balogun came to his father’s defense rather than keep mute.

The ongoing rivalry between Wizkid and Davido escalated in recent days, with both artistes engaging in public spats and trading insults online. Davido, responding to Wizkid’s jibes, took aim at Wizkid’s physical stature, claiming that Wizkid is so short that he wears size 7 shoes and jokingly suggesting he shops at Footlocker Kids.

Some individuals on social media supported Davido’s claims by sharing photos purportedly showing Wizkid wearing shoes matching his son Bolu’s shoe size.

Davido further escalated the feud by disparaging Wizkid’s music, boasting about his own hits, and challenging Wizkid to release new music simultaneously. He also ridiculed Wizkid’s height, suggesting that despite his own short stature, Wizkid is even shorter.

A Davido fan, seizing the opportunity to taunt Wizkid’s family, commented on Boluwatife Balogun’s TikTok page, asking if it was true that both Bolu and his father wear the same shoe size.

Bolu promptly responded to the taunt, defending his father by highlighting Wizkid’s character and integrity, asserting that despite any jokes about shoe sizes, his father doesn’t stoop to begging for attention or engaging in inappropriate behavior.
