Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United future hangs in the balance for next two games
Dutchman expected to stay for next two matches at leastDefeat to Porto or Aston Villa could result in his removal
Erik ten Hag is set to remain Manchester United manager for Thursday’s trip to Porto and Sunday’s visit to Aston Villa, with the club’s executive “calm” regarding his position despite Sunday’s humiliating 3-0 loss to Tottenham.
The reverse at Old Trafford leaves United 12th in the Premier League with seven points from six matches, and a goal difference of -3, having scored only five times. Sunday’s result represented a second consecutive 3-0 loss in the league at home, following the capitulation to Liverpool on 1 September.
