The hell that Manchester United finds itself in has led the board to search for a way out of this nightmare season for its fans. The club is performing inconsistently in the Premier League (currently in eighth place with 15 points). In addition, the elimination from the Carabao Cup against Newcastle and the resounding 3-0 defeat against Manchester City in the English derby have questioned Erik ten Hag's continuity as a coach. For this reason, possible replacements have already started to circulate, including Julen Lopetegui and Unai Emery, who could arrive with the goal of rescuing what used to be one of the most powerful teams in England and is currently going through a series of defeats.
Although defeats are the most painful, Ten Hag's performance as Manchester United's coach cannot be considered a failure, but rather inconsistent in terms of results. However, with a squad composed of players acquired for millions, the Dutchman finds himself in a precarious position. He has been eliminated in crucial matches and, in addition, his current position in the Premier League could see the team miss out on international competitions for the year 2024.
