OPINION: United boss Ratcliffe would possibly have a look at Arsenal and see his excellent Ten Hag plan
“Injuries are an issue, but the same weaknesses visible in United in the autumn are still there now the sun is out again. That is never going to be a good look for a manager and after the 4-0 defeat at Crystal Palace on Monday, the chances of Erik ten Hag surviving are slim. Slim, but not impossible. He could yet win the FA Cup final, or gain positive results against Arsenal and Newcastle this week. Those making the decision at Old Trafford might decide the lack of an obvious candidate to replace him makes change a risk that isn’t worth taking. And maybe they decide that this season is actually just a write-off and the good work of his first campaign shouldn’t be tossed away. United need a project manager and in Ten Hag they have someone who seemed to fit the bill a year ago.”
