Erik ten Hag has found an ally in Brentford boss Thomas Frank, who defended the under-fire manager at his press conference.
Speaking ahead of Brentford's clash with Arsenal this Saturday, Frank explained, quoted by RTE: "A lot of rumours and links lately.
"I've said it before in other situations, I think it’s disrespectful to Erik ten Hag.
"He is doing everything he can to do well for Manchester United."
After the number of injuries Ten Hag has had to contend with, the boss has suggested that Man United have overachieved this season.
The Red Devils remain in the hunt for a trophy in the FA Cup and seem set for a sixth-place finish in the Premier League.
They are currently six points behind fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur ahead of facing Everton at Old Trafford.
