In the face of mounting speculation about his tenure, Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, remains unperturbed about his future at Old Trafford, citing confidence in the “common sense” of those holding his fate.
As United braces for a crucial clash against title contenders Arsenal on Sunday, Ten Hag finds himself amid heavy scrutiny amidst what could be the club’s most dismal Premier League season to date.
With the Red Devils languishing in eighth place, facing the grim possibility of missing out on European competition, Ten Hag’s future hangs in the balance.
Yet, a potential lifeline exists in the form of the FA Cup, with a chance to salvage silverware should they overcome Manchester City.
Reflecting on the precariousness of managerial roles at United, Ten Hag acknowledges the precedent set by Louis van Gaal’s dismissal in 2016, despite winning trophies.
When pressed about his concerns, Ten Hag asserts at his pre-match press conference ahead of Man United’s Premier League clash with Arsenal on Sunday: “No. I think they [owners] have common sense.”
