The potential ownership change under Sir Jim Ratcliffe could indeed herald a new era for Manchester United. That can bring fresh perspectives and strategies to the club. Appointing capable individuals to oversee football operations implies a commitment to revitalizing Manchester United's fortunes and returning the club to its glory. The speculation surrounding Erik Ten Hag's future as manager adds an intriguing dimension to Manchester United's ongoing transformation. His understanding of tactics and strategies makes him a compelling candidate to lead the club forward, and fans will probably be eager to see if he remains at the helm next season.

The rumors linking Gareth Southgate to the managerial position at Manchester United is shocking. Who would think he can handle the demands at Manchester United. The possibility of Southgate joining Manchester United cannot be entirely ruled out, but the club's long-term vision and managerial preferences are not a cheap concern. Manchester United's future success will depend on a combination of strategic decision-making, managerial leadership, and on-field performance.

Manchester United's poor performance this season seems to have made Jim Ratcliffe's patience as the new owner run out, because so far Manchester United's performance in the league has not improved significantly and Manchester United is still very far from reaching the Champions League zone position even though this season there are only 10 games left, Ten Hag's position at Manchester United is indeed starting to be threatened because it looks like Manchester United are starting to look for a new manager for next season and now Gareth Southgate is the first choice to coach Manchester next season.

Regardless of whether the news is true or not, but I think replacing Ten Hag is the right solution to see Manchester return to glory, so far Manchester have spent a lot of money on Ten Hag to buy players but even every player who comes is not able to show a good performance in Manchester except Hojlund in my opinion.
There are reportedly two options given by Jim Ratcliffe to ten hag next season:

1. Fired from Manchester United with 10 million euros as compensation for dismissal.

2. Demoted to head coach, who no longer has a role in the process of recruiting and transferring players.

Why is it that, Bayern Munich wants a new coach.
Chelsea wants a new coach.
Barcelona wants a new coach.
Liverpool wants a new coach.
Juventus wants a new coach. But, Gareth Southgate is only linked to Manchester United? Why not also linked to this other clubs? This is done and pushed by the English media and it's completely bullshit! Dogshiit!

Manchester United should rather see Michael Carrick returning to Manchester United if try have plans to sack Erik Ten Hag than see Southgate.
And here you are, one of these posters who follows the crowd and can't think or take decisions for themselves. I'd be disappointed if he is appointed, if he so good, why not England National Football Federation extending his contract?

If this is the plans of Jim Radcliffe and his team, then they're crap! Take it or leave it.

Something else you need to know is that not only the defense line is very strong but also the midfield and attack line are very strong.
I consider Manchester City to be one of the most perfect clubs in terms of players who don't have any shortcomings. Everything is very great and do you know why I say this?
Because there are no major changes that have occurred in Manchester City so the strength of this club is still the same as last season, whereas you can see that Real Madrid is not like it was in its glory days and currently looks a little very weak to me.

Even in this match, the bookies still favor Manchester City with odds @2.38 while Real Madrid has odds @2.90
From the odds, we can see that the bookies do not doubt that Manchester City has more complete players than Real Madrid.
But in the leg to bet on this match will be very high risk but there are several options that we can choose to get a profit from the results of our bets.

I believe Manchester United would come back greatly after going under the ownership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe. He has already hired some great people to change the football inside Manchester United. I would be waiting to see if Erik Ten Hag would be staying as the manager of Manchester United next season.

There were rumors about Gareth Southgate’s possible transfer to Manchester United as manager but in Fabrizio Romano’s post, we can see that Southgate told us that it is disrespectful to talk about a rumor when another manager is managing that club. So there is still a possibility of that happening but the chances are low I guess.

As for Tottenham there is an interesting detail in the fixture now. Tottenham are likely to determine the champion this year.    The reason is that they have matches against all the title contenders in the remaining weeks.

Only the one against Liverpool is away. If Liverpool have good results until those weeks they can really turn this into their own advantage. Liverpool really need Salah in every single match remaining from now on. In case of another injury they might be in serious trouble for their championship target.


As for the Brighton match I don't think Liverpool would leave any point at Anfield. If Trent leaves Liverpool they had better start looking for a good alternative. There will be only Bradley left in this case. He is talented but he wouldn't be enough for Liverpool. Who do you have in your mind? 

Well Manchester United haven’t remained the same since Sir Alex left the club and it’s been quite worrisome how they’ve now turned to their Chelsea who changes coaches almost every season. The only difference is that United haven’t been good with winning trophies within the past 7-8 years as compared to Chelsea.This is a big worry for the fans and especially for the new board that’s about to take over. Yes a club is ought to be successful and one major criteria for classifying a club as successful is the amount of trophies the club’s won.

 Going by this classification, you see that Manchester United is lagging behind and currently the new board is thinking of getting a new coach to take over from Ten Haag. This is understandable because of how poorly the club had performed this season, it’s so bizzare. Ten Haag who took over last season and helped the club finished 3rd also led them to the winning the League cup, and the EFL final though he lost to City rivals.  This season many thought  he will be better than last but the reverse was thw case.
 They were eliminated off the UCL with just 3 points inn he group stage and are struggling to get Europa League spot for next season. Well one good thing is that they’re in the FA Cup Semi Final and if he can get that trophy, he might be considered to still remain.

 Well some names have been mentioned to replace ETH at the club and yes they’ve all been great options but the option of Southgate is what I don’t understand. Let’s stop praising him, Southgate is no where close to ETH. Southgate at Man United will really be worse than ETH current season. United need a very good tactican and not a puppet as Southgate, ge keeps using overhyped players and think that will fetch him success and him at United will see the England boys having more play time and this might go ahead to ruin the club well.To me the option of Southgate is a no and rather they should consider a more tactical coach and also consider getting a very efficient Sporting Director to head their transfers as this will be more effective than the Southgate option.

Yes, it seems like this is the match that fans and bettors have been waiting for and if you choose City to bet on in the match, it is because you are of the opinion that City will win this match because in your opinion City is a team that has strong defensive strength. sturdy. So strong that several times in the match City only conceded a few goals, as said yes, what is clear is that this will have a big impact on the match, maybe many will choose City over Madrid.

True, and winning that game will boost the club's performance a lot. In order to achieve this, Arsenal must have a better mentality. It will allow the club to defend its position until the end of the season, but I'm still doubting it was caused by Arsenal. This club has never won anything in the Premier League since two decades ago.
It means that Arsenal's mentality is poor. Arteta may be able to push it even better than the previous coaches did, but I'm still doubting it was caused by Arsenal, which has been known as a club that did bottle jobs at the end of the season many times. It means the club was always missing important things.
Even arsenal has been awarded to be a club that was very often in bottling the EPL trophies after its perfect season in PL. Did you remember last season? arsenal has gotten a 91% win rate in the premier league, but the City was winning the competition.
It sounds strange but it's real. This is what I was calling Arsenal as the king of bottle jobs. The bottle gun is a perfect name for arsenal now. We may see this bottle gun to miss another chance to get EPL again soon. Seriously, i strongly believe many will blame this bottle gun if this club missed it again like last season.

Actually, sometimes decisions like this can be a gamble I guess. Looking for new options where Ten Hag is considered unable to improve Manchester United's performance is still quite good in the end but when looking for a replacement and it is Southgate I think Manchester United need to think further about this.
It does not mean to say that Southgate is a bad coach because he is also one of the good coaches in his own way, it's just that in terms of career and in terms of decisions in the England national team so far, of course, we know there are some controversies that he created over his decisions during his time as coach of the England national team so this should be of more concern to Manchester United.

In addition, movements like this will certainly be the same as Manchester United in the past few seasons where the coaches they brought seemed ordinary and this is not much different as when Rangnick replaced Ole who ultimately did not have a significant impact in terms of performance.

The match against Manchester City will be a psychological test of how strong Arsenal are currently competing for the EPL trophy, and it is important for them to win the game, even if it is difficult, because Arsenal must win their mentality. Winning the EPL will boost players' confidence when it comes to facing other teams in the league.The last time Aminal won a neutral was in 2003/04 and Arsenal EP fans have been waiting a long time for an answer.

As we all know how the English league continues to present strong competition between teams even as the league entered last week, we can be sure that if one team makes a mistake, they will be knocked out as Premier League champions. This season's competition, Arsenal have so far managed to surprise us by competing in the Championship unlike last season which usually happens when Arsenal are at times like this.With the championship out of the way like last season, the three teams currently competing will need to be able to take advantage of every gap that exists in their opponents' weaknesses to secure a win, including the next match between Arsenal and Manchester City.

Conte is good manager, he was previously linked with MU before letting Solkjaer go some time ago, but because many players don't like him so management prefers to recruit Ten Hag. maybe At the moment is the right time for him because he was unemployed, Previously he was linked to Juventus, but there is no right decision yet so so it's still floating issue. If I were him, I will take any chance and willing to coach any club even if have a few salary. MU is the best club, but the management still remains any potential coach besides him.

Arsenal winning the league is one thing that will happen but I don’t think it’ll be this season. Yes because they’re not real placed to be win the league this season yet.Their last few matches have real been great ones with massive scorelines and that’s one reason they’re leading the log with goal difference because they’re leveled on points with Liverpool. At the moment, I don’t think the mentality of the players is high enough to win the league as against Liverpool and City who are in a fierce race with them.

 Looking at the remaining fixtures, you see the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United for Arsenal to play and you think to an extent that it’ll be walkover for Arsenal forgetting that these clubs are still big 6 clubs and are ready to be spoilers to your party. The match between Chelsea especially as Chelsea this season tends to do very well against bigger teams. Arsenal have a match in about a week with City at the Etihad and yes they might be able to match with Pep City but what’s the assurance that they’ll be able t gt 3 points off the same boys whore in a fierce competition woth them. Any drop of point for Arsenal in that match will be bye bye to the league.

 And yes I think the best that Arsenal can get at the Etihad is a draw and that’ll be a result favorable to Liverpool who have leas competitive matches remaining in their final run. Any drop of points from any of the 3 teams will be a major boost to the other teAm(s). This being said, I don’t think Arsenal have what it takes yet to be able to win the league as against teams like City and Liverpool yet. These teams have better experience as compared to the players in the Arsenal squad. Even though we know how much the fans can’t wait to end their 20 years plus long wait of winning the EPL, I so much feel it’s not their time yet as the players needs to have a very strong mentality to be able to make this a reality else they’ll continually be seen as empty threats.

If you look at the last few seasons, it is true that the Arsenal team does not have a good mentality and at crucial times like now, in important matches at the end of the season, they often lose concentration so they make a lot of their own mistakes, I think this is all because of the pressure on the team, but Whether this season will be different, no one knows, but what is certain is that the strength of the Arsenal team is slightly better than last season.

For the team's mentality and self-confidence, the match against Manchester City is very important for them and it must be admitted that it will be quite difficult for Arsenal, especially since this match will be played at Manchester City's home ground.

I don't think Gareth Southgate would be one of the best options. I mean he doesn't have any success in his career so far - 0 titles. He has managed England for nearly 8 years until now. He has had amazing players in his control but still no achievement at all.    Middlesbrough is another team he managed before and that's all in his career.

As a result I'm not sure if Southgate would be the right man to manage Manchester United and win titles. I think Manchester United should consider Antonio Conte option. He is still without team.

I would have asked if there is another Southgate in football as a coach if not the coach of England National Team. I mean Southgate is not a bad coach but linking him to Manchester United or proposing he will perform well at Manchester United is the joke of the month. I personally do not see any attribute of Southgate that will propel United to a greater height. Southgate is so gentle and I will not choose him over ETH anyday. I also do not think that Manchester United needs another coach for now. What they need is to stable their team by adding more consistent and committed players. ETH has what it takes to get results and he has been getting results even with an inconsistent and a non coherent team. Give Erik 10 time, he will do wonders.

Southgate to United would not be a bad idea to be fair, not that he is an amazing manager or something but he is not that bad and he can't really screw the team over this badly. Plus, I always believed that managers should have a lesser power at transfers, if you keep asking managers who to get, there will be some issues, just bring good players in and let the manager do their job.

Southgate could be pretty great at that, you hire a proper general manager or director of football whatever and that would mean that we would be able to see good transfers and a decent manager. Of course at this point United will only get better because they have such high quality young players, who will only get better and better with time.

Among the three clubs competing for the premier league this season, Arsenal looks to be the weaker team because they are the team without winner’s mentality and also the club that hat has the toughest fixtures left but with how they have played since the turn of the year I will definitely say they have the capability to beat just any other club anywhere. This tough fixtures to me will give them competitive mindset and let them not to relax. Last season when they lost the league they weren’t even losing to top clubs but rather to clubs that they underrated, imagine blowing away a lead to westham United, drawing to Southampton and drawing at Liverpool after taking a two goal lead when Liverpool we’re suffering last season.

So this season I think they only need to focus and they can definitely win all the remaining matches but this one against Manchester city will definitely have a huge impact in the coming matches.

The crucial match between Manchester City and Arsenal will certainly change the course of the season championship competition in the Premier League, just as Arsenal benefited from the draw between Manchester City and Liverpool in the previous match, of course the match will also give Liverpool an advantage if they win from Brighton, indeed on paper Liverpool will be able to get 3 points from Brighton but I think the match will still be a difficult match For Liverpool.

So far Liverpool must be able to overcome every pressure that exists in the rest of the game to continue to be able to compete with Arsenal and Manchester City, and maybe beating Brighton can be the beginning of Liverpool's rise after the defeat in FA, playing at Anfield certainly does not guarantee Brighton will be easily beaten by Liverpool and you can see the head to head match of the two which is currently quite drawn,  In Liverpool's last 5 matches against Brighton, Liverpool only managed to win 1 game while the remaining two losses and two draws, that's why I said still Liverpool cannot underestimate Brighton which might later be a stumbling block for their.
