Erik ten Hag’s job ‘at risk’ unless serious improvements are made

The Red Devils have suffered a lacklustre start to the season

It has been described that the game model he uses needs to start impressing the Ineos-led footballing department, as the style of football so far this season has been underwhelming.

Entering the international break, the Red Devils have so far won just one game in the league, whilst losing two at the expense of Brighton and Liverpool.

There is an understanding that injuries have burdened the Dutch manager and the five new signings are yet to be fully integrated, however the style of play requires improvement.

The Dutchman’s game model is therefore being observed and scrutinised by United’s football department.

Ten Hag was publicly backed by Dan Ashworth and Omar Berrada earlier this week, meaning support remains for the immediate future.

However, it is demanded that United must start to control and dictate matches.

The Red Devils' only victory so far this season came courtesy of a late Joshua Zirkzee over Fulham, however the game was described as not a domination.
