Despite a successful summer window, the Red Devils are off to a terrible start this season. After winning against Barnsley in the EFL Cup third round match last month, United were winless in their next five games in all competitions.
As a result, Erik ten Hag was under a lot of pressure during the recent international break and it was even reported that the Dutch coach was almost fired.

Battle
Boca Juniors believe they will lose the 23-year-old in January as he has been attracting a lot of attention following a series of eye-catching performances of late, with the player having a 13 million pounds termination clause in your current contract.
The report says that Man Utd are not the only club in this race, as Liverpool and Tottenham have also been closely monitoring his performances in recent months.
The Argentine can play on both wings. He is a technically talented player and can dribble past opposing defenders in tight areas. Additionally, he can play passes between the lines and also works hard out of possession.
Liverpool already have a strong attacking department, but if Mohamed Salah – who has entered the final months of his current contract – eventually leaves the club and they will have to sign a replacement for him.
On the other hand, Tottenham have Timo Werner at their disposal, but he has joined the club on loan and if they decide not to sign him permanently, they will need a new attacker next year.
Furthermore, Antony has been struggling to show his best for United after joining the club a few years ago, so if he parts ways with the record Premier League champions, they will also have to sign a new winger.
It will be interesting to see if any of the three Premier League clubs decide to take a concrete approach to signing Zenon in the upcoming winter window.
