“However, that is just one result and when you look at the team and how much money the club has spent since Erik ten Hag arrived, I still don’t see a team that can finish in the top four.

 

“They only got in the top four last year because other teams were poor, but now Liverpool, Tottenham and Aston Villa are all there challenging for it.

 

“I don’t think United will finish in the top four this season and should that be the case, I think they will sack ten Hag.

 

“When I look at all the other big-name managers in the league, ten Hag still stands out to me as the one who will be sacked first.”
