Erik ten Hag is a “dead man walking” in the context of his Manchester United future as scrutiny increases on the Dutch manager.
According to Football Insider, Erik ten Hag is walking on a tightrope when it comes to his position at Manchester United. The Dutchman could be in danger of losing his job should results not improve in the immediate aftermath of the embarrassing home defeat to Liverpool.
Erik ten Hag is a “dead man walking”
Managers often feel the heat in the wake of a bad defeat at the hands of an arch-rival. In Erik ten Hag’s case, the scrutiny over his future has increased exponentially increased following the embarrassing defeat at the hands of Liverpool at Old Trafford before the current international break.
The report states that ten Hag is a “dead man walking” and that he could be given time only until Christmas to save his Manchester United job. Another recent story claimed that ten Hag has four more games to show INEOS chiefs that he can steer the club in a different direction, as Manchester United have begun another season in abysmal fashion.
The major talking points against Ten Hag have been his inability to improve the side’s results as well as bring a specific identity to this team. More so, many have suggested they cannot see a structure in this Manchester United side, which does make the doubts over the Dutchman valid in many regards. So far, the club have backed him despite that Liverpool loss and growin scrutiny from media outlets as well as their fans.
Further reports have begun linking Manchester United to new names to replace the current manager. Thomas Tuchel was linked again lately, while former Germany boss Joachim Low is also a reported target should INEOS part ways with Ten Hag.
Ten Hag must bring immediate improvements
Ten Hag entered the summer window at the back of a stellar FA Cup final win at Wembley, beating rivals Manchester City. The result allowed Manchester United to re-think their earlier stance on the Dutchman and decided to offer him a new deal instead. The manager was also given plenty of backing in the transfer window, as Tren Hag ended up spending nearly £200 million on new arrivals to strengthen his side.
However, fans have begun complaining that they do not see any visible improvements, which does add to the pressure. The Liverpool defeat was another nail in the coffin, as the scrutiny has two-folded since, as another set of bad results could force Manchester United to make a stern decision on his immediate future at the club.
