Erik ten Hag is in hot water with Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Brentford on Saturday 'going down badly' in Sir Jim Ratcliffe's camp, according to reports.
The Red Devils were well below par but looked like they would leave the capital with all three points when Mason Mount struck.
However, a goal from Kristoffer Ajer in the 109th minute earned a well-deserved draw for Thomas Frank's side.
Ten Hag won the Carabao Cup last term and guided United to third in the Premier League table.

Ten Hag was asked about United's abject performance against Brentford in his post-match press conference.
And the Dutchman conceded his side didn't deserve to win, while also calling for more desire from his players.
“We didn’t deserve to win," he admitted.
“But if you’re winning you have to take this. I would say normally we are very good in these circumstances.
“We showed resilience all through the game but in points of aggressiveness Brentford were better.
