Erik ten Hag has been labelled a "tin pot tough guy" by Richard Keys – who reckons he could even be sacked by Manchester United this week.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils boss was the focus of the controversial beIN Sports host's weekly blog after the 3-0 derby defeat to Man City on Sunday (October 29). United will be looking to bounce back in their Carabao Cup fourth round tie at home to Newcastle.<\/p>\n

But Keys believes another loss could be the beginning of the end for Ten Hag. He began his post: "Ok. When I called him Erik ten Months it was a little bit harsh, but it was an obvious one wasn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n
