Ten Hag's future at <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/revealed-when-man-utd-will-make-final-decision-erik-ten-hag-sack-calls-players-believing-fate-sealed-crystal-palace-humiliation/blta1f4992bd33f7645" target="_blank">Manchester United is looking increasingly uncertain</a> after a poor season for the Red Devils. United hit a new low on <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-player-ratings-vs-crystal-palace-casemiro-diogo-dalot/bltfb5c85f72d8b20e7" target="_blank">Monday with a 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace</a> that has left the team in danger of missing out on European football for next season. England manager Southgate has emerged as a real contender to replace Ten Hag, according to <a href="https://twitter.com/Santi_J_FM/status/1787911332144025988" target="_blank">Foot Mercato</a>, but the news has been met with disgust from United fans.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Man Utd fan @7El_Bicho is clearly not a fan of Southgate taking over, posting on X: "It think we are getting relegated next season."Another supporter, @Saucyjeyy04, felt United would be better off not making a change: "If that's the case I would rather stick with Ten Hag."And @JSaturday_ is clear it's not a good decision, adding: "This is just embarrassing."The news on Southgate also didn't go down well with @Daniel_Naess: "Never want to see Southgate anywhere near this team, cant think of a worse replacement."And @sapnon wrote simply: "I guess it will be better to just stop watching Manchester United."

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is thought to have turned to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/sir-sim-ratcliffe-gareth-southgate-man-utd-england-boss-erik-ten-hag/bltf02d38eb483dbf12" target="_blank">Southgate after talking to some of the club's legends</a> and is said to be confident of convincing the England manager to move. Yet any approach for Southgate will surely have to wait until after Euro 2024 as the Three Lions boss goes for glory in Germany. Southgate's contract expires at the end of the year but the Football Association are <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/new-contract-gareth-southgate-fa-want-england-boss-stay-on-after-euro-2024/blt741be13a0864c54f#cs094818f762e9acb3" target="_blank">believed to be willing to offer a new deal if the manager wants to continue</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Any decision on <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/revealed-when-man-utd-will-make-final-decision-erik-ten-hag-sack-calls-players-believing-fate-sealed-crystal-palace-humiliation/blta1f4992bd33f7645" target="_blank">Ten Hag's future is not expected to made until after the FA Cup final</a> on May 25. The Red Devils finish their Premier League campaign with games against Arsenal, Newcastle and Brighton but could still finish on a high by beating Pep Guardiola's side at Wembley.
