Ten Hag now fourth favourite manager to be sacked

Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has emerged as the fourth favourite Premier League boss to be sacked.

The Dutchman is firming to 12/1 to be the next head coach to be fired according to Sky Bet.

Those odds are joint fourth-favourite with Burnley’s Vincent Kompany.

Kompany is yet to win a game since they won promotion to the English top flight.

The only three managers considered to be in more danger to be let go are Wolves’ Gary O’Neil at 9/1, Everton’s Sean Dyche at 7/1 and Sheffield United’s Paul Heckingbottom at 4/11.

Ten Hag found a bit of relief following United’s 1-0 win at Burnley and the 3-0 thrashing of Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup.

However, that was short-lived – with the Red Devils going down 1-0 to Palace in the Premier League over the weekend.

It was yet another poor performance at Old Trafford and piles more pressure on Ten Hag.
