Tragic news has been announced about Eric Ten Hag this morning – Manchester United fans can’t bear it! It’s over! – Jamie Carragher announced

Erik ten Hag’s position at Manchester United appears increasingly precarious, with reports indicating that his dismissal could come after just three more games. Paul Merson has emphasized the severity of the situation, noting that a significant portion of the squad seems to be losing confidence in the manager’s strategies.

United has already suffered 10 defeats in 21 matches this season, and according to Sky Sports, player dissatisfaction with Ten Hag’s management is growing. TEAMtalk first brought attention to these issues earlier in November, revealing that several players, including key senior figures, are unhappy with both the team’s performance and training methods. The situation has been further aggravated by the handling of Jadon Sancho, which has only deepened the players’ frustration.

This season marks Manchester United’s worst start in 51 years, adding to the mounting pressure on Ten Hag. Although the club has yet to make an official statement, there are indications that the board may be reevaluating their support for the manager. Reports suggest that roughly half of the squad is disillusioned with Ten Hag’s approach.

The upcoming matches against Chelsea and Bournemouth at Old Trafford, followed by a crucial Champions League fixture against Bayern Munich, are viewed as pivotal for Ten Hag’s future. Merson has suggested that failing to secure victories in these games could result in Ten Hag’s departure, especially after what he described as a “humiliating” performance against Newcastle.

Despite the mounting challenges, Ten Hag remains committed to improving the team’s fortunes. However, BBC pundit Alan Shearer has expressed concerns that Ten Hag’s job may be at risk, particularly if Sir Jim Ratcliffe finalizes his purchase of a 25% stake in the club, as new ownership often brings managerial changes. Both Shearer and Merson remain doubtful that the club’s deep-seated issues will be resolved quickly, pointing to fundamental problems within the squad.
