Looming sack: Erik Ten Hag set to be axed by Manchester United

Manchester United are reportedly planning to part ways with Erik Ten Hag after witnessing little or no progress in the team on field activities. The current team is disjointed, relies on individual brilliance to win games and lack ideas to open up teams. 

The manager's confrontational style of management has done more harm than good to the team and stipfle the progress of the younger players. Top players seems to be protesting with thier instant drop in form. 

United at the moment are way off the pace to compete for the Premier League title and already looking ill-equipped to win a domestic cup after suffering a 3-0 defeat to Newcastle United in the Caraboa Cup. 

Ten Hag though believes he could still turn things around and gave a defiance speech when asked if his time is running out. 

Irrespective of what he said, Manchester United legends like Gary Neville and Paul Scholes both feels its time the club find a good manager that could get the team back on track before the top 4 is out of sight.  

Although, sacking Erik Hag Ten won't be cheap. Manchester United must pay a $17m settlement fee if they do decide to terminate his contract.  

When Ten Hag goes United will have a list of options to appoint as the next manager and most fans want the club to hire Zinedine Zidane who famously guarded Real Madrid to 12 titles including a historic Champions League treble.

4 Reasons Why Kylian Mbappe must join Liverpool rather than Real Madrid

For most players, Real Madrid and Barcelona are dream clubs to play for but they're also a lot of negatives that must be taken into account before making the move.  A typical example is Eden Hazard who is arguably the greatest player in Chelsea history and one of the best players in Premier League history.

Hazard retired at the age of 32.  Kylian Mbappe is without doubt a super player but, he needs to understand that Liverpool offers him a better chance to reach his full potential than Real Madrid and here are the reasons why: A. The Premier League is more competitive than La Liga and Liverpool is the best place for him - Apart from Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, most people don't even bother watching other Spanish teams in the La Liga except their competing in the Champions League, Europa League or the Conference League.

One trick pony: How Manchester City star Erling Haaland can be stopped

When it comes to consistency of goals scored, no other striker delivers like Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland. The Norwegian's an extraordinary player, a poacher of goals that should be the model for future strikers.  The Norwegian star is currently the quickest player in Premier League history to score 50 league goals, shattering Andrew Cole's previous record by 17 games after scoring the opening goal in Manchester City's 1-1 draw with Liverpool.  His conversion rate is bone chilling and definitely worrisome for opposition coaches who always seems confused on what must be done to stop Haaland. Stopping the 23-year-old is hard but possible.  Fact; Haaland do not score goals outside the 18-yard box. Since joining Manchester City from Borrusia Dortmund, Haaland has only managed to shoot 10 times outside the box and scored just once.  Why? He is an instinctive goal poacher whose short burst opens up space for him to shoot accurately to goal. His biggest strength is tha

A Better Nigeria: What the Government must do to end food crises

What is wrong with Nigeria and its people? A sane question most people have asked for decades but little have figured out the problems. Those who have the amicable solution and well placed in positions to truly effect change are either been rigged out, threatened or even killed.   Tragic you would say, but there's more to the complex web of Nigeria's challenges and food crises is one of them which the incumbent president must deal with immediately.  Before taking over the mantle of leadership, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu made a series of promises and swiftly took action by removing fuel subsidy in his first day in office. Taking that action was bold and cold because no alternative was given.  The effect was an immediate increase in fuel which resulted in an increase in the cost of transportation of both perishable and imperishable goods. Businesses which where reliant on generators for power packed up while well established businesses were forced to retrench workers or pack up.
