Former Manchester United striker Alan Brazil claims Erik ten Hag will be sacked if he doesn’t beat Luton this weekend. However, the radio host says he has heard from sources that the Red Devils will not pull the plug on the Dutchman until December due to “financial” reasons.<\/p>\n

Ten Hag saw his United side lose for the ninth time in all competitions this season on Wednesday. They suffered a 4-3 defeat at the hands of FC Copenhagen in the Champions League, despite leading with seven minutes of normal time remaining.<\/p>\n

United currently sit eighth in the Premier League after last Saturday’s late 1-0 win at Fulham. They face Luton at Old Trafford on Saturday, who are fresh from their 1-1 draw with Liverpool at Kenilworth Road.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils are strong favourites to win just their third home match in the league this term. But Brazil says it could be curtains for Ten Hag if he doesn’t get all three points.<\/p>\n

The Scot, who played for United between 1984 and 1986, says Ten Hag faces the sack if Luton avoid defeat on Saturday. But he claims from information he has heard that the Dutchman will not be relieved of his duties until December 1.<\/p>\n

Brazil said on talkSPORT: “Manchester United have to beat Luton. If they don’t, Ten Hag is a goner. Yes, he’s a goner.<\/p>\n

“He won’t go, here’s a prediction, in my opinion, from what I hear, before December. But after December 1, he’s in big danger. I don’t think it’s going to happen until after December, so I’m talking about financial [reasons].”<\/p>\n

Ten Hag has faced several high-profile issues on and off the pitch this season. Brazil says the players are now not giving him 100 per cent.<\/p>\n
