The Red Devils were comfortably beaten 3-0 by Newcastle in the round of 16 in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, putting further pressure on the manager.<\/p>\n<p>United have failed to meet the mark since the start of the campaign, and their exit from the Carabao Cup \u2013 a competition that they won last season \u2013 has only epitomised their woes. Ten Hag\u2019s side never truly looked energised enough to cope with Newcastle\u2019s counter-attacking, fast-paced style, with key players underperforming once more.<\/p>\n<p>The Magpies took the lead in the 28th minute after Tino Livramento charged down the right wing, cruising past several United stars before playing a neat pass into the path of Miguel Almiron. The Paraguay international then managed to hold off Diogo Dalot to squeeze a strike past Andre Onana and send the away supporters into a frenzy.<\/p>\n<p>Things then went from bad to worse for United just eight minutes later after ex-Chelsea star Lewis Hall opened his account for Newcastle with a well-placed volley into the far corner before Joe Willock put the game to bed in the 60th minute with a sensational curling effort.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to join our WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive Man Utd news.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Neville rips into five &#8216;whinging&#8217; Man Utd stars after &#8216;wonderful&#8217; Newcastle goal[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5044808.jpg?r=1698880963545\"><\/p>\n<p>After the match, Ten Hag jumped to the defence of his squad and took responsibility for the underwhelming performance, insisting that he felt that his side were capable of bouncing back to form. Asked if he felt that he had the &#8216;right characters&#8217; to meet the demands of a club with the stature of United, Ten Hag told Sky Sports: &#8220;We have and I am confident in that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlayers will stand up and they are sticking together.
