Graham Potter has already identified four Manchester United players he admires, amid speculation that he could replace Erik ten Hag.
After yet another disappointing start to the season, Dutchman Ten Hag is coming under growing pressure to turn around United’s woes.
The Red Devils, who are presently sixth in the Premier League standings, had a dream of qualifying for the Champions League that turned into a nightmare when they lost to Bayern Munich 1-0 on Tuesday, eliminating them from the competition.
There’s a big away game against league leaders Liverpool at Anfield coming up, so Ten Hag has a lot of pressure to perform.
Potter, a former manager of Brighton and Chelsea, has been connected to take Ten Hag’s place at United in recent weeks.
According to rumors, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who is about to finish up his minority investment at United, is a huge Potter admirer and would be open to signing Potter if Ten Hag were to be fired.
Potter gave four United players praise when he managed Chelsea.
“They’ve done well,” he informed the media. Undoubtedly not a fantastic start for them, but they’ve fought back, are performing well, and are scoring points. This will be a difficult game.
They’ve probably altered a little bit in their ball-building process, producing somewhat longer balls overall. somewhat more straightforward. They nevertheless retain the same quality at the same moment.
Potter went on, “They have a lot of similarities and have adapted to the competition and each other. They have the threats of Rashford, Antony, Sancho, and Bruno Fernandes plays a key role for them.”
It’s a typical procedure. Erik had only been at United for six weeks, if that. I had been at Brighton for three years. He have the quality, thus it stands to reason that they will continue to improve. Manchester United is Manchester United, and they’re becoming an increasingly formidable group.
