Discussion: Where will United finish in this season's Premier League?
Where will this United side finish in this season's Premier League
It has certainly been a difficult start. We've lost to Brighton, Liverpool, and Spurs by an aggregate score of 8-1. This shows us that our players will probably struggle in league matches against decent opponents.
Let's explore where we could finish the season in more detail.
Naturally, you'd expect us to drop more points against the likes of city, Arsenal, and maybe even Chelsea who are in great form, as well as Newcastle.
Last season, we finished 8th with a negative goal difference, and despite having improved on the squad with new signings in the summer, ten Hag looks like he could be on his way to achieving an even worse finish on the table.
Could a new manager change anything?
This is the big question that the hierarchy at Old Trafford will be trying to answer. When Solskjaer took over after Mourinho was sacked in 2018, there was an immediate upturn in form. That culminated in that magical night in Paris. The general issues remained though. That season ended appallingly and we were perhaps lucky to qualify for the Europa League.
There's an argument to be made that Thomas Tuchel could significantly improve Manchester United by instilling a different level of tactical discipline and defensive organisation. This is an area where we have struggled for consistency since the start of the 2023/2024 season. Tuchel's emphasis on pressing and structure would tighten the team's shape, reducing vulnerabilities.

His experience with managing egos and big personalities at clubs like Bayern Munich, PSG and Chelsea would also help stabilise the dressing room, fostering unity. Additionally, a flexible tactical approach could maximise our attacking talent, making us more versatile in games. His ability to adapt and improve players tactically would also be crucial in elevating the club’s overall performances.
