It may be a relief for under-pressure manager Erik ten Hag, but Manchester will not be playing in the Premier League this weekend.
The Red Devils drew 2-2 with Bournemouth in their last league match on April 13, meaning they have now won just one of their last seven top-flight games. Qualification for the UEFA Champions League seems impossible and now they are in a battle to even finish in the top eight positions in the table.
United’s recent performances have generated real concern among fans and experts. They have become accustomed to conceding a large number of shots on goal while themselves lacking inspiration in attack, and if things do not improve in the final weeks of the season, there is no guarantee that Ten Hag will remain in the position. for early 2024/25.
However, the Dutch manager will have a reprieve on April 21 when United turn their attention to the only trophy they can still win this season, one that could also offer an alternative route into European football next season.
