Man Utd relegation danger real under Carrick - Ten Hag warns

Man Utd sit 17th in the Premier League with just seven points from nine games after a 2-0 loss at Chelsea, leaving them winless in nine fixtures. Ex-manager Erik ten Hag warns the club faces genuine relegation danger, telling ESPN the league's competitive nature means going down is 'certainly possible' under current boss Carrick.

The Red Devils host Roma in the Champions League midweek before welcoming Aston Villa to Old Trafford this weekend in a must-win Premier League clash. Ten Hag's assessment carries weight — he managed the club for two seasons and knows the squad's limitations.

For Nigerian fans tracking the title race or fantasy leagues, United's collapse reshapes expectations. They're now closer to the drop zone than the top four. Villa under Emery will fancy their chances at Old Trafford given United's current fragility.

Will Carrick's side finally break their duck against Villa, or does the relegation talk become reality if they lose?
