Threatened for several weeks, Erik Ten Hag claims to have the confidence of the new leaders of Manchester United.
Manchester United gave themselves a little breathing room. Led 2-0 by Aston Villa on Tuesday, the Red Devils turned the match around and finally won 3-2 at the end of a totally crazy encounter worthy of Boxing Day. Thanks to this success, the Mancuniens remain in contact with European places since they are five points behind Tottenham (5th).

An equally valuable victory for Erik Ten Hag, whose place has been threatened for several weeks due to the club’s poor results. With the arrival of INEOS at the head of Man Utd’s sporting side, the departure of the Dutch technician could have been hasty. Still on the Old Trafford bench on the eve of a trip to Nottingham, the former Ajax coach claims to have the confidence of Jim Ratcliffe. “They (INEOS) want to work with me, I want to work with them. We will have discussions, meetings. INEOS wants to work with me within this structure and I want to do it with them. This seems very positive to me”he said at a press conference this Friday.
