Erik ten Hag's Manchester United tenure plunged to new depths in last weekend's embarrassing defeat to Tottenham, but worse could be still to come as they travel to face Aston Villa on Sunday.

The scoreline was only 3-0 but the manner of the loss to Spurs at Old Trafford and the lifeless performance of the Red Devils players suggested that the Dutchman's days could well be numbered in the North West.

Indeed, Villa will be licking their lips at the prospect of facing a Man Utd team that may have Bruno Fernandes available after his red card was overturned but are closer to the regulation zone than the top four.

Though Unai Emery's side dropped out of the top four after last weekend's draw with Ipswich, it has still been a strong start to the 2024/25 campaign and they're just two points behind league leaders Liverpool after six games.

The early signs are that Villa have got what it takes to follow up last season's fourth-place finish but a statement win against Man Utd would be a great way to quieten any remaining doubters ahead of the international break. Should that happen, ten Hag may be the Premier League's first managerial casualty this term.
