🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: COMING LIVE FROM SKY SPORTS NEWS. MANCHESTER UNTIED LEGEND SPEAKS ON ERIC TEN HAG “IF MANCHESTER UNITED DOES NOT WIN TODAY, THEN ERIC TEN HAG IS THE WORST MANAGER TO EVER COACH THIS CLUB” 😱😱🙀

Winning the FA Cup won’t be enough to save Erik ten Hag from being sacked at Manchester United, according to Scottish football legend Ally McCoist. McCoist believes a managerial change at Old Trafford is inevitable this summer. As underdogs, the Red Devils face a tough challenge against Manchester City in their Wembley showdown. City has just secured their fourth consecutive Premier League title, while United finished a disappointing eighth.The odds favor Pep Guardiola’s team, who have won six of the last seven Manchester derbies. However, even if Ten Hag manages an upset, it may not be sufficient to convince United’s minority owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, to retain the Dutch manager.

“I don’t even think a win in the FA Cup final will be enough for Erik ten Hag,” McCoist said to talkSPORT BET. “In most cases, new owners want to bring in their own people. While some believe INEOS will provide a fresh start for everyone, I think the new owners will prefer their own manager.” McCoist also pointed out that while the manager is accountable, the players must also take responsibility for the season’s performances. He anticipates significant changes in the playing staff and believes the manager will be replaced regardless of the FA Cup final’s outcome.

Ten Hag, who took over at United in the summer of 2022, has won 67 out of 113 games, giving him a 59% win rate. This is slightly better than his predecessors Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (55%) and Jose Mourinho (58%), and he has one League Cup victory to his name.McCoist suggests that Ratcliffe should consider hiring Mauricio Pochettino, who was recently dismissed by Chelsea. Pochettino has been linked with the United job in the past and is known for his ability to develop young talent, which McCoist believes would benefit the youth at Old Trafford.

“I could see Mauricio Pochettino going to Manchester United,” McCoist continued. He emphasized Pochettino’s skill in nurturing young players, which would be advantageous for the emerging talent at United.McCoist also noted that both United and Chelsea have struggled in recent years and need significant changes in their squads. He believes that resolving United’s issues will take around 18 months to two years, with no quick fixes available.It seems like there’s a consensus forming around the potential departure of Erik ten Hag from Manchester United, regardless of the FA Cup final outcome. Ally McCoist’s insights highlight the complexities of managerial transitions, especially with new ownership. Mauricio Pochettino’s name popping up as a potential replacement underscores the speculation surrounding United’s future direction and the need for a long-term strategy to address their challenges.
