Manchester United are 17th in the EPL table. The previous lowest low they had ever been was 15. This is new low.
Could United actually go down?
The danger is real now
- The warning sign: Just one point separates United from the relegation places.
- The biggest concern: Poor results are becoming a pattern rather than an isolated slump.
- The reason for hope: There is still a long way to go in the season, giving Michael Carrick’s side time to recover.Plus Carrick’s luck has to change one of these days.
Erik ten Hag has gloomily warned that relegation is possible if the team gets trapped in a downward spiral. Football pundit Paul Merson has also predicted that United could enter the bottom three by December.
