Mighty Manchester United kicks off its 2024-25 English Premier League season on Friday against a solid Fulham squad in what should be a thrilling opener for both clubs. Manchester United had a great summer, signing Dutch center-back Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern Munich, French center-back Leny Yoro from Lille (he’s now injured, though) and Dutch forward Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna, for arguably the best summer of any Premier League squad. That means the time for excuses for manager Erik ten Hag will now be over and results will be necessary for him to earn long-term trust from Manchester United or risk losing his kob.

That’s because ten Hag is borderline playing with house money right now after keeping his job when many thought he’d be fired this summer. After all, Manchester United’s eighth-place finish in the Premier League last season had ten Hag’s seat on fire by the end of the campaign. The only reason the Reds even qualified for Europa League this season was because they beat rival Manchester City in the FA Cup final, a result that might have saved ten Hag’s job.
Even so, the Dutch caretaker will have a clean slate this season and results should improve with a stronger roster than the club has had in some time. Plus, Manchester United finished third in the Premier League the season prior, 2022-23, under ten Hag, proving that he can get results in the top soccer league in the world.
Fulham, meanwhile, finished 13th in the English Premier League last season, unable to build on a more successful 2022-23 in which the club finished 10th overall in the league. Still, the team has some impressive talent, including USMNT left-back Antonee Robinson, one of the more underrated outside backs in the Premier League.
