New Delhi: Jim Ratcliffe will be keeping a close eye on Villa Park this weekend, where another slip-up against Aston Villa could push Erik Ten Hag closer to the exit door. The Manchester United boss, who narrowly avoided being sacked earlier this season, is under mounting pressure after a string of disappointing results.
United’s latest setback came on Thursday, as they squandered a two-goal lead in a dramatic 3-3 draw with Porto. Despite Harry Maguire’s late equaliser, the Red Devils’ defensive frailties were laid bare once again, following on from their 3-0 home defeat to Tottenham.
With only three wins from their first ten Premier League games, United now sit in a lowly 13th place, winless in their last four outings across all competitions. Many are already calling for Ten Hag’s departure.
However, there is a glimmer of hope for the Dutchman. United have recorded two consecutive away clean sheets in the league, and a win over Villa could offer some temporary relief. But with Unai Emery’s in-form Aston Villa looking dangerous, it won’t be easy.
