Though it was widely believed that had FC Porto defeated Manchester United in their UEFA Europa League encounter last weekend, Erik ten Hag would've been sacked but I don't think that's true. My opinion is based on the confidence the Dutchman have on the club's management and how's he's been telling the media that he has a long term plan with the club management which is why he's still getting all the backings he's enjoying at the moment. Even after failing to win at Aston Villa yesterday, he still made statements that suggests that he's still very much in charge so wether Harry Maguire had scored that last minute equalizer at Porto last week or not, I feel Manchester United management would've still retained their club manager
You can't say, but lucky enough, Ten Hag had draws instead of loss matches because if Manchester United had two loss matches at a go, I am not sure whether the Manchester United board would withstand the pressure from fans calling for Ten Hag sack. The pressure would have doubled than it is now, that Manchester United had draws.
In the Manchester United match against Aston Villa, didn't you see that the Manchester United owner, Sir Alex, and some management staff of Manchester United were all present in that match? Do you think that if Manchester United had lost to Aston Villa, they would have pardoned Ten Hag, not be sacked the next day? The draw Manchester United had, was what saved him.
