Manchester United: 3 managers who could replace Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford
Erik ten Hag's days at Manchester United may be numbered and here are three realistic candidates to potentially replace him as manager.
Manchester United started brilliantly and had a penalty in the 9th minute, but Bruno Fernandes missed it. Scott McTominay opened the scoring for the Red Devils in the 19th minute, but Cole Palmer restored parity for the Blues before half-time.
A McTominay strike in the 69th minute, however, ensured Ten Hag's side earned maximum points.
What ten Hag said
The Dutch manager was pleased with his team’s start to the game. Manchester United had a peppy start, a sharp contrast from tepid performances in matches past, and Ten Haag explained that this was an intentional game plan to get the Old Trafford crowd behind them.
"I can always have complaints but we are pleased with the result and the performance. We deserved this. We wanted to send this message to the crowd but this is also our style. In the first 30 minutes, we did it perfectly on the pitch."
