Domino’s Billboard Takes a Jab at Ten Hag’s Struggles

In a bold move, Domino’s placed a billboard outside Old Trafford with a clear message for Ten Hag: "We’re hiring (not you, Erik)." This playful dig comes at a time when the Manchester United manager is facing intense scrutiny for his team’s disappointing performance in the Premier League, where they currently sit in 14th place.

Ten Hag’s position has been under increasing pressure, with United now enduring a five-game winless streak across all competitions. Despite the club’s significant financial investments during the recent transfer window, the team has failed to find the consistency required to compete at the highest level.

Domino’s added to the humor by releasing a statement that hinted at Ten Hag’s struggles: "It takes the right people for important jobs," they said, implying that the Dutchman might not be the best fit for their own recruitment needs. The joke resonated with fans and fueled further discussion about whether Ten Hag is the right man to lead Manchester United out of their current slump.

Timing of Domino’s Campaign Hits a Nerve

The pizza chain’s timely campaign coincides with growing rumors about potential replacements for Ten Hag, including former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel. By inserting themselves into the conversation with wit and humor, Domino’s managed to not only grab the media’s attention but also highlight the increasing pressure on the Manchester United boss.
