The Dutchman is facing increasing pressure following five defeats in the opening 10 Premier League matches of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Ten Hag had a successful first season at Old Trafford after replacing Ralf Rangnick. He ended the club&#8217;s six-year wait for silverware by winning the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle in February.<\/p>\n<p>A title charge was unrealistic in his first campaign but a third-placed finish ensured United were back in the Champions League. But despite spending around \u00a3190million on new signings in the summer, it has been a horror start to his second year in English football.<\/p>\n<p>United sit eighth in the Premier League, already 11 points behind first-placed Tottenham. They also lost their opening two Champions League group stage matches to put qualification to the knockout round in doubt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to join our Man Utd WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive United news.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Read more&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd stars &#8216;questioning Erik ten Hag&#8217;s tactics&#8217; and want two team-mates axed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Man-Utd-news-Erik-ten-Hag-sack-5042817.jpg?r=1698791453627\"><\/p>\n<p>Sunday&#8217;s 3-0 loss in the Manchester derby at Old Trafford was perhaps the most worrying result so far. The gulf in class between United and City looked as big as ever.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Mirror, Ten Hag&#8217;s job is not yet at risk. But the pressure is increasing and if Ten Hag is no longer deemed the right man, it would cost United more than \u00a315m to get rid of him.<\/p>\n<p>The uncertainty over United&#8217;s takeover situation continues to rumble on. INEOS founder Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks set to buy a 25 per cent stake in the club and would take control of all footballing decisions.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Advert-free experience without interruptions.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Rocket-fast speedy loading pages.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Exclusive &amp; Unlimited access to all our content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Bruno Fernandes &#8216;stopped&#8217; Man Utd signing James Maddison over Mason Mount[TRANSFERS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd alarm bells ring as Ten Hag publicly abandons project with admission[QUOTES] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Real Madrid &#8216;preparing Chelsea swap deal&#8217; with sweetener offered for Kepa[GOSSIP] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If Ratcliffe wanted to put his stamp on the club, a change in manager may be one of the decisions he looks to make.

Ten Hag chose against holding a press conference ahead of the match as, unlike in the Premier League, clubs are not obliged to do so for the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Fixtures come thick and fast for United, as they face a trip to Fulham on Saturday before the reverse match away to Copenhagen in the Champions League.
