Manchester United’s season is hanging by a thread, with the FA Cup to play for, Erik ten Hag’s time at the club has been largely a disappointment, with an EFL Cup to his name but not much else.
This season the Premier League side was dirt poor with an underwhelming 15-12-5 record. The team is winless in their last 4 games. Then there were the off-field issues between Erik ten Hag and Jadon Sancho, leaving the club without a star player who went on to play well for Borussia Dortmund.
The Red Devils have not been able to provide much in the way of answers. Reports out of England stating that Erik ten Hag is almost assured of being relieved of his duties by season’s end, The Sun has reported 7 candidates to take over the job.
