“I don’t see the goal threat,” Merson says after sharing the United vs. Everton result, acknowledging that Ten Hag’s job is in jeopardy.
Paul Merson has offered his prediction for Manchester United’s upcoming home match against Everton in Saturday’s early kick-off.
Both teams are struggling for form, with Manchester United coming off two consecutive Premier League losses to Fulham and Manchester City.
This has fueled speculation about Erik ten Hag’s future as the manager.
Meanwhile, Everton received some relief when their 10-point deduction was reduced to six last week, giving them a bit of breathing room in the relegation battle.
However, they remain just five points above the relegation zone, and their recent results haven’t been favorable.
Scoring goals has been a challenge for both teams. Manchester United has scored the fewest goals among the top 12 teams in the table, while Everton has struggled as well.
In his Sportskeeda column, Merson shared his thoughts on the upcoming match.
He believes it’s a good time for Everton to face Manchester United, but their own
struggles to secure wins make it difficult to predict a positive outcome for them.
Merson expects Manchester United
to capitalize on Everton’s goal-scoring issues and secure a comfortable win at Old Trafford.
He also suggests that Erik ten Hag’s position as manager might not be secure, and much
will depend on how the remainder of the season unfolds for Manchester United.
