With Manchester United’s poor start to the season under close examination, Erik ten Hag’s future at the club is under great question. Under pressure, the Dutch manager apparently thinks his position is “safe” ahead of a crucial meeting featuring top brass members from INEOS.
With one of their three initial 11 game victories against League One team Barnsley in the Carabao Cup, Manchester United has only won three of their 11 games overall across all competitions this season. Ten Hag’s dismal run of form has cast questions on his capacity to turn things around, which fuels rumors that his employment would be under threat even with an earlier this year two-year contract extension.
Ten Hag’s Future’s Crunch Meeting
Executives of Manchester United are reportedly scheduled to meet shortly to go over Ten Hag’s future at Old Trafford, with his management position in more and more danger. Ten Hag is still hopeful, though, according to The Telegraph, about navigating this trying time and avoiding replacement.
Ten Hag will have to motivate a quick turn-around in the club’s fortunes as the pressure rises to keep his position since ongoing bad performance could force United’s leadership to change course.
