Former Man Utd player to take over as new manager after Erik ten Hag
It seems that the pressure is mounting for Manchester United's current manager Erik ten Hag. Rumors are swirling that he could soon be replaced, and former Everton chairman Keith Wyness has weighed in with his prediction that ex-player Michael Carrick will be the one to take over the reins.

But for now, ten Hag remains in his role, though he's definitely feeling the heat. With speculation about his future constantly swirling, it's only natural that attention has turned to who United might choose as their next manager if they do decide to part ways with ten Hag. And according to Wyness, they might take a chance on Carrick, who is currently managing Middlesbrough in the second tier of English football.

Of course, Carrick is no stranger to Manchester United. Not only did he play for the club for 12 years, making 464 appearances, but he also served as their caretaker manager before. So, he's definitely familiar with the club and its ethos.

Wyness believes that United may opt for a different approach this time around, choosing a managerial coach like Carrick instead of a big-name manager like Thomas Tuchel. He thinks that having an ex-player at the helm could help bring back the United ethos that fans have been missing.

But ultimately, no one knows for sure which direction United will go. They are currently reaping the consequences of a tumultuous off-season, and it's clear that things are not looking good for the team. With just two wins in their first seven Premier League games, it's been a rough start to the season.

However, ten Hag does have some success under his belt, having helped the club win the Carabao Cup and FA Cup in 2023 and 2024. And their next match against Brentford on October 19 could be a chance for them to turn things around.

In the meantime, fans can only wait and see what will happen next. One thing is for sure, United will need to make some changes if they want to start seeing better results on the pitch.
