Gareth Southgate’s Waistscoat on Manchester United’s Website Sends Fans Into Meltdown
Manchester United’s dismal start to the season has led to fresh speculation about Erik ten Hag’s future at the helm, and now, eagle-eyed fans have spotted what they believe to be a "clue" hinting at his potential replacement.
The club’s website has listed a new United waistcoat, discounted to £337, which has sparked a flurry of wild theories among supporters. Enter Gareth Southgate, England’s former national team manager, who’s been linked with the Manchester United job for some time.
Taking to social media, fans shared their thoughts on the mysterious waistcoat, with many expressing their disapproval of Southgate as a potential replacement for Ten Hag. "Oh for f**k sake didn’t need this on a Monday morning," wrote one Twitter user, while another chimed in with, "Please no."
The majority of fans don’t seem to be convinced by Southgate’s credentials to lead the Red Devils, but one thing is certain: Ten Hag’s job security is under scrutiny. United’s poor start to the season, coupled with rumors of unrest in the dressing room, has raised doubts about the Dutchman’s ability to turn things around.
Speaking after the disappointing 3-0 loss to Tottenham, Ten Hag reassured fans that he’s not worried about his future at the club, stating, "We are all on one page or in one boat together, the ownership, the staff, and the players as well. I don’t have that concern."
It’s clear that United fans are divided on the waistcoat’s significance, with some seeing it as a harmless marketing ploy while others believe it’s a genuine hint at Southgate’s potential arrival. Whether or not this speculation pans out, one thing’s for sure: Manchester United needs a swift turnaround if they’re to salvage what’s left of their season.
