Ten Hag favourite to be next Premier League manager sacked as odds PLUMMET

  /  autty

MAN UTD's humiliating defeat to Tottenham has left Erik ten Hag on the brink - if the bookies are to be believed.

The United boss watched his side implode to a 3-0 loss in front of a furious Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

Ten Hag had shuffled his pack before the game, leaving out Christian Eriksen following his midweek howler.

But captain Bruno Fernandes was shown red for a dangerous lunge on Brennan Johnson as Spurs dominated against the abject hosts.

Goals from Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke piled on the misery for the Red Devils.

And Ten Hag now finds himself as the new FAVOURITE to be sacked next in the Premier League.

Betfair had the under-fire Dutchman as a massive 9/1 shot to be axed next before kick-off at the Theatre of Dreams.

Following a nightmare 90 minutes, those odds shortened to just 10/11.

Sunday's loss leaves Man Utd languishing 12th in the Premier League table.

Only second-bottom Southampton have managed less than Utd's paltry five league goals this season.

Betfair have also priced up possible replacement for ten Hag, should United executives swing the axe.

Former Stretford End favourite Ruud Van Nistelrooy heads the betting at 9/4.

The former goal machine is currently Ten Hag's assistant at the club.

Next up is former Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate, who left his job with the national team following Euro 2024.

Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, Kieran McKenna and Roberto De Zerbi are next on the list at bigger prices.

Sky Sports pundit and former Utd full-back Gary Neville was speechless as he slammed the "awful" display.

"Erik ten Hag, coming into October, November, this is where he's really going to be judged.

"He's had five transfer windows, these are his players out on the pitch. This is his team. We've got to start seeing some real progression."
