Erik ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, could face dismissal if the team loses their next three matches, starting with their upcoming game against Chelsea on Wednesday. This prediction comes from Paul Merson, who criticized United’s performance in their recent defeat against Newcastle as “shocking and embarrassing.”

Struggles in the Premier League and Champions League

The Red Devils’ disappointing season continued with their loss at St. James’ Park, leaving them in seventh place in the Premier League, trailing nine points behind leaders Arsenal. Their struggles are even more evident in the Champions League, where they currently sit at the bottom of their group. Their chances of advancing to the knockout stage rely on defeating Bayern Munich and hoping for a draw between Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

The players have faced severe criticism, and there are rumors of a deteriorating relationship between Ten Hag and the squad. Merson believes that the outcome of the next three games will determine the manager’s fate, although he predicts that United will secure a result against Chelsea.

United’s Performance and Chelsea’s Strength

Merson expressed his shock and embarrassment at United’s display against Newcastle, emphasizing their lack of effort. In contrast, he praised Chelsea for their impressive win against Brighton, especially after being reduced to ten men. He believes that Chelsea, with a settled starting eleven, have the ability to challenge United. Despite some defensive issues, Chelsea performed well against Brighton and demonstrated resilience.

Merson acknowledges United’s tendency to perform well in important matches, even after a string of poor results. However, he emphasizes that if United loses to Chelsea, Bournemouth, and Bayern Munich, Ten Hag’s position as manager will be untenable. Merson predicts an exciting, high-scoring draw between the two teams.
