Next Premier League manager sacked odds: Ten Hag cut after Man Utd’s European exit

Erik ten Hag has been cut to 6/4 in Coral’s next Premier League manager sacked odds after Manchester United crashed out of Europe.

The 1-0 defeat to already-qualified Bayern Munich at Old Trafford meant Ten Hag’s side finished bottom of their Champions League group.

A wild, error-strewn continental group stage left the Red Devils’ last-16 hopes hanging by a thread, with progress only possible if they beat the German champions, and Copenhagen and Galatasaray drew.

But the Danes’ victory and Kingsley Coman’s finish from a smart Harry Kane pass saw toothless United’s hopes of a Champions League miracle go up in smoke as the curtain came down on Group A.

Ten Hag’s side also missed out on the consolation prize of Europa League qualification, with this just the fourth time a Premier League side has finished bottom of their Champions League group.

Coral’s Lewis Knowles said: “Steve Cooper still heads the betting to be the next managerial departure but it really has not been a good week for Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United and the Dutchman is now 6/4 to be the next Premier League manager to get the axe.”

The final whistle was greeted with boos at Old Trafford, where United lost for the seventh time this season – having now lost more games in all competitions (12) than they have won  (11).

Ten Hag’s side are out of Europe, out of the League Cup, and sixth in the Premier League going into Sunday’s visit to leaders Liverpool.

Defeat also came at a cost, with Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw picking up injuries before half-time.

“There are still many things to play for now, we can focus on the Premier League,” Ten Hag said.

“This is the level we want to play, the Champions League, so we have to give every effort to get into the top four so next year we are back in the Champions League – and of course there is the FA Cup so there are still many things to play for.”

Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper remains the favourite at 5/6 to be the next Premier League manager sacked.

The battling 1-1 draw at Wolves last Saturday kept Forest 16th in the Premier League and ended a four-game losing run.

Cooper dismissed any suggestions he was saying goodbye to the fans after the game.

“That’s the last thing it was,” he said. “I was saying thank you for the support, you’ve spent a lot of money this week and dragged the players through challenging times in the game and have a safe journey home. I was just full of gratitude.”

Roy Hodgson is 7/1 after Crystal Palace’s winless run extended to five games following the 2-1 defeat at home by Liverpool, with a trip to champions Manchester City up next.

David Moyes, whose West Ham side were thrashed 5-0 at Fulham on Sunday, is 8/1 with Chelsea’s Mauricio Pochettino at 14/1.

Burnley boss Vincent Kompany is next in the betting at 20/1 and you can get 25/1 for Newcastle’s Eddie Howe in the next Premier League manager sacked odds.
