Ten Hag job at risk unless 'game model' impresses underwhelmed Manchester United bosses

The manager safe for now with injuries and signings in mind. 

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag applauds the fans at Old Trafford on Sunday. 

Erik ten Hag’s game model has to start impressing Manchester United’s Ineos-led football department or he is in danger of being removed, with the manager’s style of play so far this season viewed as underwhelming.

United entered the international break having won once and lost twice in the Premier League in a disappointing start. There is recognition inside the club that Ten Hag has been undermined by injuries and needs time to integrate his five summer signings, but also serious concern regarding how he sets up the side.
