While a feeling of defeat is nothing new this season, the club fell to a new low last night.<\/p>\n<p>Slumping to a humiliating 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Crystal Palace, United achieved a record that no team would want to break. The club registered its <a href=\"https:\/\/thepeoplesperson.com\/2024\/05\/06\/manchester-united-set-club-record-with-13th-league-defeat-in-premier-league-era-279842\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">13th defeat<\/a> in the league for the season &#8211; a club record during the Premier League era.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, this harrowing loss as well as the unwanted record have piled on the pressure for the Dutch manager, who has already faced a barrage of criticism and <a href=\"https:\/\/thepeoplesperson.com\/2024\/05\/05\/erik-ten-hag-gets-into-row-with-dutch-journalist-over-man-uniteds-playing-style-279774\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gotten into rows<\/a> with the media over his playing style or lack thereof.<\/p>\n<p>With Ten Hag&#8217;s days at Old Trafford expected to be numbered, several candidates have emerged as potential replacements.<\/p>\n<p>Gareth Southgate and Graham Potter have both long been linked with the club, while high-flying Girona boss <a href=\"https:\/\/thepeoplesperson.com\/2024\/04\/25\/manchester-united-target-michel-sanchez-as-erik-ten-hag-replacement-279351\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">M\u00edchel S\u00e1nchez<\/a> has also been named as a potential managerial target.<\/p>\n<p>In the lead-up to the Palace defeat, <a href=\"https:\/\/thepeoplesperson.com\/2024\/05\/06\/manchester-united-talk-to-hansi-flicks-representatives-about-him-replacing-erik-ten-hag-279813\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Peoples Person<\/a> relayed that United had allegedly made contact with the representatives of Hansi Flick to inquire about his availability.<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly, it appears as if former Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte has reentered the race to become United&#8217;s next manager.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time that the Italian has been linked with the club. Prior to Ten Hag&#8217;s appointment, rumours emerged claiming that Conte could replace then-United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.<\/p>\n<p>While such reports never came true, Conte&#8217;s name is yet again being thrown around as discussions over Ten Hag&#8217;s successor take centre stage.<\/p>\n<p>Italian news outlet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rainews.it\/tgr\/abruzzo\/articoli\/2024\/05\/napoli-italiano-o-pioli-1785fbdd-91e3-4a31-bec2-a98fa5a177c8.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RaiNews<\/a> claimed that Conte has been considered by Napoli as a managerial candidate, however, the club has not advanced negotiations to secure a deal. This leaves him on the market.<\/p>\n<p>Given this development, <a href=\"https:\/\/sportwitness.co.uk\/italian-manager-move-manchester-united-summer-seen-possibility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sport Witness<\/a> suggested that a move to United could be a possibility for Conte, claiming that a new manager could form part of INEOS&#8217;s staff overhaul of the club.<\/p>\n<p>Still, even with a plethora of managerial candidates being linked with the club, United are yet to announce a decision on Ten Hag&#8217;s future, causing mass anxiety for concerned United fans.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Want to be the first to hear breaking Man United news?
