Man United manager Erik ten Hag will be determined to strengthen his chances of keeping his job when his side faces Man City in the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday.
"I promise you those players will give everything to win that cup and bring it to Old Trafford and we are sure you will be there supporting us," said the Manchester United manager. "We thank you, the best supporters in the world."
For Ten Hag, of course, it might be his only remaining hope of keeping his job. Mauricio Pochettino's exit from Chelsea on Tuesday has added another name to the list of potential candidates to replace him. At the same time, however, Ten Hag has still had enough talent at his disposal to lead United to better results. The players also have to take their fair share of responsibility for the club's downfall.
United, for all of their history, are once again heading into a Manchester derby as underdogs. There is no escaping that fact. However, as they demonstrated at Old Trafford in January 2023, City are not immune to defeat.
