I don't think there's anyone that still believes that there's a possibility of Manchester United going back to winnings ways again under their current manager Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman like I've said in several times in this thread doesn't act like manager who still got some clue on what next to do and improve the performance of the team. The wins that's been managed by the club this season are all lucky wins and sometimes as a result of individuals brilliance of the club players. Manchester United are yet to play as a team this season and they must sack the current manager and hire a better one who's capable of doing everything that's expected of a top football manager for a positive change at the club this season
It is just really difficult for Manchester United to achieve this comeback with Erik ten Hag as it seems. Because there is still no sign of any recovery. They just continue to lose points which caused the gap with top four to go up to nine points. There are three teams between as well so it is very hard for Manchester United to make it to the Champions League again.
I think this must be an enough reason for the board to sack him by the end of the season at worst. If they were a title contender in the previous season then maybe Erik ten Hag would have still had a chance to stay longer even if he completes this season poorer.
