Ten hag Out, Excellent Alonso & Pog-BAN!

With Manchester United having a rollercoaster season, the future of Eric Ten hag seems to be up in the air. The Red Devils are currently 6th on the domestic table having lost a shaky 11 matches this season, out of 27.

With a goal difference of +45, Alonso's men are currently topping the table with a whopping 10-point lead over Bavarian and Bundesliga giants, Bayern Munich. Are we on track to witness a new Bundesliga Champion?
