Erik ten Hag and Man United fall deeper into a desperate, dismal mess of their very own making
Three decades ago, when Manchester United were about to face Galatasaray, they were greeted with banners declaring: “Welcome to Hell”. Thirty years on, United may have found hell: not in Istanbul, but in Manchester. A second home defeat in four days has sent them spiralling into crisis. So much for Raphael Varane’s assertion that they can win the Champions League. At this rate, bottom of the group, beaten six times in all competitions already this season, they may not even be playing in the Europa League after Christmas. A 3-2 loss came courtesy of their own failings: of disastrous defending, of the indiscipline of the sent-off Casemiro, of the poor team selection by Erik ten Hag. Even a colossal contribution by Rasmus Hojlund, who scored twice, had another goal disallowed and provided a chance that Bruno Fernandes really should have taken, was obscured by United’s ineptitude. It says something that Davinson Sanchez – that Davinson Sanchez, the former Tottenham centre-back – registered two assists. The second encapsulated United’s haplessness. The Colombian’s header from his own half released Mauro Icardi to run through a shot over Andre Onana, a goalkeeper with a marked reluctance to save any shots. It was rendered easier because Icardi, escaping behind United’s centre-backs, was played onside by the out-of-position makeshift left-back Sofyan Amrabat. It was a wretched night for United’s full-backs: Amrabat was partly culpable for Galatasaray’s second equaliser as well when Bans Yilmaz raced into space behind him before finding Kerem Akturkoglu to finish. Galatasaray’s first goal – scored, with a certain inevitability, by Wilfried Zaha – could be put down to Diogo Dalot. Outmuscled by the winger as Sanchez’s long ball landed in front of him, he allowed Zaha to hook in a shot that bounced over Onana. It was not the first time United had grounds to rue their mismanagement of Sir Alex Ferguson’s last signing. Zaha played four times for them and has now scored four goals against them. Yet Zaha, too, was demoted to a supporting character in the broader tragicomedy of another display of United haplessness. They were a team who were twice reprieved and immediately conceded. Akturkoglu was guilty of a glaring miss when Onana spilled the ball; United let him score instead shortly afterwards. Icardi drilled a spot kick wide after Casemiro, in his final contribution, chopped down Dries Mertens. He was soon on the scoresheet anyway. And for Casemiro, cautioned in the first half, a third red card of a brief United career highlighted how his lack of mobility and their shambolic tactics are dual problems. The Brazilian cannot get to the ball as quickly as he used to. United leave him exposed and, after Onana gave the ball away, he slid in on Mertens. For United, defeat to Bayern Munich by a one-goal margin may have had a certain respectability, much as he 4-3 scoreline in Germany flattered them. A loss at home to Galatasaray has no such sheen. The Turkish champions struggled past Molde in a play-off and went 2-0 down to FC Copenhagen two weeks ago. They brimmed with spirit and showed quality in attack, but the architects of defeat were United themselves. Ten Hag has to take his share of the blame. Picking Hannibal Mejbri backfired and not merely because the youngster, who was hauled off at half-time, contrived to block a goalbound shot from Mason Mount. Yet to focus on the rookie would be overly harsh: senior figures were found wanting. And the one player who should escape censure was United’s youngest starter. Hojlund was outstanding, taking his tally to three goals in two Champions League games, twice putting United ahead. They should have led earlier, Fernandes miscuing a shot wide after the Dane wriggled clear to cross. Then Casemiro hooked a pass over their defence, Marcus Rashford chased it and lifted in a cross and Hojlund accelerated past Davinson Sanchez to head it in. The ubiquitous Colombian had a part in his second, too, slipping as the £72m man sprinted half the length of the pitch to lift a shot over Fernando Muslera. United could rue the moment when Rashford, in trying to provide Fernandes with an open goal, under-hit a pass and allowed Sacha Boey to intercept. Often criticised for his decision-making, this time Rashford’s execution was the issue. But they had far greater problems, lacking control or cohesion, wrenched open, taking the total of goals conceded in Europe this season to seven already. They have horrible memories of visiting Istanbul three decades ago and of being eliminated from the Champions League by Galatasaray. A return at the end of November could come with a similar fate. And a comparison would emphasise their failings: in a year when Manchester City won the Champions League in Istanbul, Manchester United could exit it there.

How TikTok's ‘Lazy Girl Job’ trend may negatively impact employees
From "quiet quitting" to "Bare Minimum Mondays," the workplace is no stranger to viral career and employment trends - with the latest one to make rounds being all about the "Lazy Girl Job." "Lazy Girl Job" is going viral on TikTok where the term was originally coined by Gabrielle Judge, and has already received over 12.2 million views. “I’m a big fan of ‘lazy girl jobs’. There’s a lot of jobs out there where you could make $60,000 to $80,000, so pretty comfortable salaries, and not do that much work,” Judge said in the video. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The reason she used the word "lazy" as the adjective is because the kind of jobs she's on about "should feel like as if you are almost operating at a lazy state when compared to the American Hustle culture." In the caption, Judge added: "Career advice for women who don’t know what remote job to apply to. "You can pay your bills at not feel tired at the end of the day. Women are here to collect those paychecks and move on from the work day. @gabrielle_judge Career advice for women who don’t know what remote job to apply to. You can bay your bills at not feel tired at the end of the day. Women are here to collect those pay checks and move on from the work day. We have so much more fun stuff happeneing in our 5-9 that is way more important than a boss that you hate. #corporatejobs #jobsearchhacks #remoteworking #antihustleculture #9to5 "We have so much more fun stuff happening in our 5-9 that is way more important than a boss that you hate." But, how beneficial is this new work trend? Workplace wellbeing expert and CEO of Officeology, Adam Butler, has shared his thoughts on this new viral TikTok trend: “I can understand why people are getting behind this new workplace trend. The premise of the ‘Lazy Girl Job’ is finding a job where you can put in minimal effort, but receive maximum rewards - the dream for most employees, no doubt? He then goes on to explain some of the upsides to this new trend of the "Lazy Girl Job." "I do believe this trend has some positives. Firstly, it is highlighting the ever-increasing need for employees to have a good work/life balance, which I believe is especially important when it comes to working parents. "Being able to spend as little time focusing on work and not bringing the stresses of the day back home is crucial to ensuring a fulfilling life and I think employers should be focusing on creating a workplace culture that promotes a healthy work/life balance." "They could do this by introducing a flexible working system, similar to the 4-day working week, or simply giving employees time back, whereby they receive an hour or so of paid time within the working week to do whatever they like, whether it be going to the gym or spending time with their loved ones. However, Butler also notes that the term "lazy," can have bad implications. "Having said that, I do believe that the name of this new trend presents negative connotations. Just because employees are wanting easier job roles, does not make them necessarily lazy," he said. "For instance, I see nothing wrong in workers wanting less stress and pressure when it comes to their working day, but I think we need to be careful that this does not become stereotyped as these people being ‘lazy’ or unskilled. "The consequences of promoting ‘Lazy Girl Jobs’ can negatively impact the roles that are associated with this trend. "For instance, Gabrielle mentions roles such as marketing associates, account managers and customer success managers as particular roles that fit into the ‘Lazy Girl Job’ category. Consequently, Butler believes this could lead to positions being generalised as ‘Lazy Girl Jobs," despite the role still requiring expertise and hard work to complete, and potentially take away the importance of these jobs as a result "This could then potentially lead to a hustle culture forming, which ironically, is everything this new trend is trying to diminish," he added. "The reason a hustle culture could form, especially amongst the younger generations, is that companies could put added pressure onto younger employees. Butler concluded: "Moreover, employees may feel they need to prove that they are hard-working and not ‘lazy’ due to the feeling of being stereotyped under TikTok trends that pose negative connotations to character, such as the ‘Lazy Girl Job’.
