The 2023/2024 season has been a rollercoaster ride for Manchester United, and not in the way the fans had hoped for.
As the curtains closed on the season, the team found themselves in an unexpected and disappointing eighth place in the Premier League.
This has raised serious concerns about the future of Erik ten Hag as the manager of the Red Devils.
However, it has been two weeks since Ten Hag guided United to victory in the FA Cup final against Manchester City, and there was hope that this search would have been concluded by now.
United, one of the most storied and successful clubs in English football, has always aimed for the pinnacle of success. However, the 2023/2024 season saw them fall far short of their lofty ambitions.
The club’s eighth-place finish is a bitter pill to swallow for the players, the management, and the loyal supporters who had hoped for a much more competitive campaign.
Ten Hag, who took the reins at Old Trafford with much promise and anticipation, now finds himself under intense scrutiny.
His future at the club hangs in the balance as the board and the fans alike ponder the reasons behind the disappointing season.
While injuries and inconsistent performances have played their part, questions have been raised about the tactical decisions and the overall management of the team.
The Dutch manager’s tenure at Old Trafford has been a mixed bag. There have been moments of brilliance and hope, but they have been overshadowed by periods of lackluster performances and unexpected defeats.
The team’s inability to find its rhythm and string together a series of convincing victories has left many wondering whether Ten Hag is the right man to lead the team forward.
