Erik ten Hag could borrowed time at Man Utd ahead of Saturday’s trip to Fulham.
Saturday’s Premier League trip to Fulham could be Erik ten Hag’s final game as Manchester United manager, according to Gabby Agbonlahor.
The former Aston Villa striker believes players will already be whispering about Ten Hag’s impending exit amid a nightmare start to the season.
As a result Newcastle United’s 3-0 Carabao Cup win on Wednesday,
Three days after Manchester City triumphed by the same scoreline at Old Trafford, intensified the pressure.
Ten Hag has overseen eight defeats in 15 games this term, including five in 10 at home, and is expect to become the latest manager to fail to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson.
Man Utd player want manager out
United’s dressing room has reportedly become increasingly disgruntled under the Dutchman over his treatment of team-mates and lack of charisma.
And while United’s decision-makers not planning to sack Ten Hag despite the club’s woes,
There is a belief that an upturn in results is crucial.
And also he expects Saturday’s lunchtime visit to Craven Cottage to be Ten Hag’s final outing in the United dugout as scrutiny on his position reaches breaking point.
“You look at Manchester United now. You can name five or six players that would like Ten Hag to get fired
So they can get a better chance under a new manager,” Agbonlahor told talkSPORT.
“Players will talk about it. I think he’s got one more game, I do. I think he’s got one more game. Then, when a new manager comes in, everyone’s brought in. Players that weren’t involved are brought in.”
Agbonlahor is likely referring to Jadon Sancho, who may partly believe he can outlast Ten Hag at Old Trafford while he continues his exile from the first team.
Sancho hasn’t featured for United in over two months after effectively calling Ten Hag a liar on social media over his exclusion from the 3-1 defeat at Arsenal.
Also the Red Devils boss has opened the door for a return
If he formally apologises to him and the squad for his behaviour.
But the long-winded nature of the saga has led to a belief
That Sancho has pass the point of no return under Ten Hag and
Will leave in January if he remains in charge.
A change of manager would raise the prospect of several interesting developments, though,
And Agbonlahor is convince it’s on the horizon.
