Erik ten Hag’s future at Manchester United is being closely scrutinized by the new owners following what they perceive as a disappointing season. Despite having another year left on his contract, ten Hag has not received any assurances from the INEOS team led by Ratcliffe. The club has made significant changes behind the scenes, including bringing in new faces and the likelihood of a new coaching staff.
There are reports that Ratcliffe highly values Thomas Tuchel, who has an impressive track record, with the United role being described as his “dream job.” Although United managed to secure a place in the FA Cup final after defeating Coventry, ten Hag’s credentials were seriously tested during the recent match at Wembley. Despite initially being 3-0 up and seemingly in control, they allowed their opponents to bring the game to extra-time.
The team’s performance has been widely criticized, with concerns about their progress and the overall situation. The team’s underwhelming performance has led to a sense of embarrassment in the dressing room, despite achieving a significant victory. There are doubts about the owners’ ability to remain positive about the situation, given the lack of visible progress and the team’s on-field struggles.
