MANCHESTER UNITED legend Roy Keane believes current boss Erik ten Hag will probably be sacked “in the next few months” after he used the “dreaded” word last night.

Roy Keane foresees Ten Hag's fate: axed 'in the next few months' as the daring Manchester United boss takes on the 'dreaded' path.


The Red Devils have faced challenges with their performance this season and entered the FA Cup encounter at Wigan with only one victory in their recent six matches across all competitions.

Diogo Dalot and a penalty from Bruno Fernandes secured a 2-0 triumph for United against the Latics, earning them a spot in the FA Cup fourth round. Despite dominating, Ten Hag's team failed to capitalize on numerous opportunities against the League One side. Keane, an ITV pundit during the match, criticized Rasmus Hojlund for missing several chances against Wigan. The former Republic of Ireland midfielder promptly pointed out four significant issues for United, emphasizing to new investor Sir Jim Ratcliffe that the situation couldn't deteriorate further.

Following their lackluster display, the 52-year-old Keane was questioned about Ten Hag's attempt to establish a distinct identity. Keane responded straightforwardly, stating, “No, not really. I think that’s the issue with United; you know what to anticipate when you show up.


“The manager there talks about the ‘project’ – it likely implies he'll be gone in the next few months.


“This dreaded term ‘project.’ No, I didn’t witness it tonight with United, and I haven’t observed it for the last few months. However, they advance to the next round, and the upcoming draw is straightforward, but a higher level of performance is essential. Considering the opportunities they had tonight, one always anticipates more.”


Earlier in the evening, Ten Hag discussed with ITV the implications of Ratcliffe’s 25 percent acquisition of the club for him, expressing, “It is an inspiration. Everyone is optimistic.”

"There's a substantial amount of work ahead. We've encountered numerous obstacles, and while we seemed promising in the summer, it's an ongoing journey and project. Presently, we're facing setbacks, but we'll persevere, weather through it, and come back stronger.


Regarding United's performance, Ten Hag remarked, 'The FA Cup is all about securing victories; it's a knockout competition. The goal is to complete the task.' In the dressing room, I emphasized 'job done.'


During the first half, we generated five or six excellent opportunities, showcasing quality football. Although we should have capitalized more, maintaining focus when not scoring was crucial, and I believe we achieved that tonight."

"You can't consistently articulate the reasons for missing opportunities. There were effective offensive maneuvers and promising opportunities, yet we failed to capitalize on them. However, the manner in which we generated those chances was satisfactory."
