Though the Red Devils managed to hold Aston Villa to a draw on Sunday afternoon, Erik Ten Hag’s position as Manchester United manager is still very much in doubt. Only two of United’s first seven Premier League victories this season have come during their startling new season. Draws against FC Twente and Porto have left the Red Devils without a win in the Europa League as well.
A meeting of United’s management is apparently planned for 48 hours following Sunday’s game at Villa Park, given the increasing doubts about Ten Hag’s future with the team. Graham Potter, Gareth Southgate, Thomas Tuchel, Ruud van Nistelrooy are among the names associated with the position in the event that the Dutchman loses it.Â

According to Gary Neville, club executives would have the ideal chance to replace Erik ten Hag as manager during the international break. Prior to Sunday’s draw, the former Red Devil stated: “I believe it is common knowledge that clubs reevaluate during international breaks, and this is evident in the events of the past week.
Though United looks to be in disarray, Erik ten Hag maintains that he and the management are still in agreement. He stated, “We always speak, every week we speak,” following Sunday’s draw with Aston Villa. We understand what we are working through and that it will take time, so we are all on the same page. Two really difficult away games have been overcome by us. Together, we demonstrated our faith and belief as a team.
