Some Manchester United players believe Erik ten Hag’s fate is sealed

Manchester United fell to their 13th league defeat of the season at Crystal Palace on Monday night and sit eighth in the Premier League.

With European football and an FA Cup on the line, Michael Owen has called for the club to now wield the ax and bring in an interim boss to salvage something from the season.

However, Manchester United insist they will not receive a manager call-up until after the FA Cup.

The club does not want to make a final decision before the end of the season, but the mood among the players is different.

Several of Manchester United’s players believe that the Ten Hag’s fate is sealed at Old Trafford.

The club is expected to get rid of him at the end of the season given how poor the campaign has been.

Manchester United technical director Jason Wilcox has been asked to assess Ten Hag until the end of the season.

It remains to be seen if those players who feel Ten Hag will go are proven right.
