On social media, there were posts criticizing Ten Hag's decision regarding Garnacho, with one comment stating that he had a poor first half but blaming him entirely for the team's problems was absurd.

This is not the first time that social media has caused problems for Ten Hag. In September 2023, Jadon Sancho posted on social media expressing his frustration at being made a "scapegoat" after being dropped by the manager.

Ten Hag explained that Sancho was dropped due to poor performances in training, which the winger vehemently denied. This led to a strained relationship between the two before Sancho's loan move.

He emphasized that Sancho's performance was impressive but clarified that it did not change anything regarding his future.

Ten Hag acknowledged Sancho's talent and reiterated that it was not a surprise to see him excel.
