The lackluster results of Manchester United this season have put a lot of pressure on manager Erik ten Hag.
United are currently facing difficulty qualifying for the Champions League, despite expectations that they will contend for big trophies this season.
Erik ten Hag was supported by the club in the transfer window, when he first joined and also before the start of this season. But he has consistently failed to get the best out of the players.
United have suffered countless embarrassments this season, with the club finishing bottom of their Champions League group earlier this season and getting beaten for the tenth time in the Premier League last weekend.
Although Ten Hag hasn’t been under as much strain lately, Nagelsmann is reportedly the favourite to succeed him and lead the Red Devils project towards new horizons, according to a report from the Spanish publication Fichajes.
Although Nagelsmann—who is also being linked to Liverpool—has emerged as the leading candidate, other possible candidates include Graham Potter, Julen Lopetegui, Roberto de Zerbi, Francesco Farioli, and Thomas Tuchel.
The German manager, who is 36 years old, is well-liked around Europe and can be a valuable acquisition. He is considered as one of the best young strategists in the game.
He now serves as the national team manager for Germany. However, it is mentioned that Man Utd may be prepared to make the leap and that the opportunity is within reach.
United’s latest result against Fulham showed once again how ten Hag has been unable to get the best out of players on a consistent basis. The gap with the fourth placed team is now eight points and qualification for the Champions League next season is looking unlikely.
It’s FUN living in CANADA and reading all the articles on Strettynews about MU. It’s hard to decide if those writing are being SERIOUS or FUNNY.
At least the stories are all in one place to read and so I can’t figure out what type this story is.
I think this season’s inconsistency has a lot to do with injuries but at the same time players themselves have been inconsistent. That’s not the managers fault. That’s the PLAYERS FAULT.
Effort and loss I can accept. No effort and loss I can’t! Another manager change is not the solution.
Yes, but surely it’s down to the Manager to get best out of the players.
Can you imagine this level of performance with these same players if vintage Sir Alex was in charge?
Inconceivable.
At the very least, we’d have a recognisable style of play despite all the injuries, which at present we just don’t.
