Simon Jordan has backed Manchester United to hand Erik ten Hag months to turn things around at the club.
« Yeah, [it would be a surprise if they sacked Ten Hag right now], absolutely. They’ve got a new management structure in place. It’s hardly bedded in, » Jordan told talkSPORT.
However, Jordan is unconvinced Ten Hag will ultimately survive the season, predicting a January sacking.
He added: « You cannot expect Man United to have their worst season in the league and start this season in the same way.
« So [Ten Hag’s] numbers are coming up now, in terms of his time will run its course. But I don’t think it’s now. My view was that he will be gone in January.
« Not because I’ve got any dog in the fight, not because I really care that much about Man United. But I think that, ultimately, he isn’t going to get them where they need to go. »
