There seems to be a more positive feel around Manchester United heading into the new football season after Erik ten Hag was kept on as boss by new minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his board.
The Dutchman was expected to be relieved of his job this summer, but following United's FA Cup win, he has been handed a chance to prove he is the man to drive the club forward and to more silverware in 2024-25.
However, despite two trophies in two seasons, former Premier League midfielder Jamie O'Hara still has doubts over ten Hag's future. So much so, talking to Grosvenor Sports , he believes that the 54-year-old will be sacked before the end of the campaign.

“I don’t think Erik ten Hag will last the season,” he said.
“I do feel for him a little bit because he’s had to deal with a lot of injuries both last season and throughout this pre-season, but this is Manchester United we’re talking about here. The pressure will always be on, and you have to continuously get good results across all competitions you play in.
“He’s obviously got some credit in the bank because he’s won two trophies in two years – and I think the fans also realize there aren’t that many great managers out there who are available – but I’ll be surprised if he lasts the whole season again personally.”
