The pivotal question facing Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sir Dave Brailsford revolves around whether Erik ten Hag is just a few signings away from transforming Manchester United or if a new manager is needed due to the team’s disjointed play and underperformance of key players like Marcus Rashford.

Assessing Ten Hag’s candidacy involves considering various factors such as injuries, recruitment issues and tactical shortcomings. Despite challenges, Ten Hag achieved success last season winning the Carabao Cup and finishing third in the league.

However, concerns persist about the squad’s deficiencies particularly in defense and midfield. Options for reinforcements include players like Jarrad Branthwaite, Matthijs de Ligt and Bruno Guimaraes. Ratcliffe and Brailsford must weigh these factors to determine the best course of action for United future.
