Former Manchester United defender, Gary Neville, has said that the club will not want to sack Erik ten Hag in the middle of the ongoing season.
According to the club legend, the Red Devils will give the Dutchman time to turn things around, adding that those in charge know the club needs two to three years to get better.
The former Red Devil Neville stated that the owners of the club, INEOS have just taken over at the club and will not want to make sudden changes soon.
Neville pointed out that the owners decided to stick with the Dutchman earlier this year and will not want to reverse their decision within months.
He said via Caught Offside, “They definitely won’t want to do anything this season. No club wants to sack a manager during the middle of the season.
“It’s not just a reflection on the manager, it’s a reflection upon them. Even though INEOS have come into the club in the last few months in terms of taking control of the football side – and Dan Ashworth and Omar Berrada have only been in for a couple of months – you can’t really land the blame at their door.”
“They’re going to need two or three years to sort this out. But the club did make the decision to keep Ten Hag in the summer, so they won’t want to reverse that decision within the first six or seven games.
“They have just got to hope [something happens] in this next couple of weeks – through maybe a reset, some thinking time, some planning,” he added.
