Erik Ten Hag would have been sacked last season, but the club management decided to keep him after Manchester United won the FA Cup finals. This season's performance is becoming worse with some shameful defeats. If the management thinks that the Dutch coach should be sacked, the ideal time to do it is now that the season is still free. So that a new coach will be able to blend with the players before January.

The club can also give out more funds to a new coach to bring in the kind of players he needs in the January transfer opening. It is troubling to see one of the best and most highly decorated clubs struggling to survive. Ten Hag should be given some time, maybe three more games, to check his capabilities. The game against FC Porto, Aston Villa, and Brentford should be used as his final test to check if he can continue with United.

In my opinion, Ten Hag did not deserve to be given more time at the club, and I do not expect much from him. It's a shame that one of the world's best teams is struggling to win a game. If the management thinks of sacking Ten Hag, now is the time to do so because the season is only starting, they have only won two of the six games played this season, and the management does not have to wait for more games because Manchester United will definitely lose their next Europa League game, Ten Hags was lucky to win the trophy in the previous two seasons, management can not expect that to happen again this season.

It will be a very challenging match for Southampton who is yet to really stand well in the EPL. just 17 minutes of play and they are already one goal down and still suffering unprecedented pressures from Bournemouth who are super strong at home and very good at converting their chances. At the 31st minute the second goal was scored making it 2-0 and I don't know how Southampton will be able to recover from this goal. They should just play to stop further goals because I feel Bournemouth might still score more.

Southampton's performance continued to be bad since the start of the season, showing that the Premier League is more difficult than the Championship, where they competed last season. Bournemouth scored three goals against them in less than 40 minutes, and they were always looking strong at home. According to the style of the game, I believed Bournemouth would earn an extra point against Southampton because they haven't been strong this season. T. Hardwood-Beliis equalized in the 51st minute of the game, ending in a 3:1 score. Southampton management needed to take serious steps before it was too late, if they didn't want to be relegated, they needed to improve their performance.
