Jamie Carragher believes that Erik ten Hag will most likely lose his job as the manager of Manchester United. This comes after United struggled to secure a victory against Coventry City in the FA Cup, with the match ultimately going to penalties.
Despite being in control for most of the game, United's performance took a turn for the worse in the final 20 minutes, as Coventry scored three goals to level the match. This shocking result led Carragher to believe that Ten Hag's job is in jeopardy.
In fact, Carragher stated on Sky Sports that he doesn't see how Ten Hag can stay as the manager after such a poor performance. He also noted that the dressing room must be feeling embarrassed despite the win.
Carragher went on to express his doubts about United's progress under Ten Hag, stating that the owners will struggle to see any positives in the situation. He believes that this result will ultimately cost Ten Hag his job as the manager of Manchester United.
However, this late collapse from United should not come as a surprise, as Ten Hag's side has been underwhelming all season. They currently sit in seventh place in the Premier League and are in danger of missing out on European football.
In response to the dramatic win, Ten Hag expressed mixed feelings and admitted that the way his team performed was not acceptable. He gave credit to the opponent for their determination, but also acknowledged that his team should have managed the game better.
Ten Hag also stated that his team needs to show resilience and determination, especially in moments where they are in control of the game. He believes that they should have won easily, but they showed a lack of resilience that almost cost them the match.
As the pressure continues to mount on Ten Hag at Old Trafford, it remains to be seen if he will be able to turn things around and save his job. But one thing is for sure, this result has certainly put his position as the manager of Manchester United in serious doubt.
