Erik ten Hag: Man United being relegated is 'certainly possible'
Erik ten Hag has acknowledged that Manchester United could face relegation from the Premier League this season, following their recent drop to 17th place after a defeat to Chelsea. This loss has intensified the scrutiny on head coach Michael Carrick, as United's position above the relegation zone is now solely due to their goal difference.
Historically, United has not been relegated since 1974, but the current situation has raised concerns about a potential battle to avoid the drop. Upcoming matches against Aston Villa and Liverpool will be crucial for the team. Ten Hag, who previously managed United and is now with FC Twente, reflected on the challenges of the Premier League, emphasizing the strength of all teams and the difficulties that can arise during a poor run of form.
