Erik ten Hag’s position at Manchester United is safe for the foreseeable future, unless he experiences a series of extremely poor results. The main focus for Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sir Dave Brailsford is to determine the necessary steps to improve the club’s performance.
Ratcliffe and Brailsford’s primary focus is to examine the composition of the team, management, and staff, as well as the club’s system and allocation of funds towards the team. This will help them determine the most effective approach to achieving their goal of restoring United as top contenders in both domestic and continental competitions.
The final decision on Ten Hag’s future will only be made after the process is complete, unless the team experiences a series of concerning outcomes and performances.
The manager is facing challenges in the current season due to frequent injuries and illnesses, as well as a disciplinary problem involving Jadon Sancho. There are also legal and other concerns surrounding Antony. Manchester United has been eliminated from both the Carabao Cup and Europe, and they currently sit in eighth place in the Premier League, trailing fourth-place Arsenal by nine points.
Ratcliffe and Brailsford, who finalized the acquisition of a 25% share in United on Christmas Eve, recently met with Ten Hag and other members of the team in person for the first time this week. Brailsford, who serves as the Ineos director of sport, holds a position on the club’s board and is acting as the go-to executive for the businessman at United.
