Before the FA Cup final win against Man City, Ten Hag was under major pressure and Jason Wilcox and others involved put forward several candidates as possible replacements.

Martin led Southampton to promotion to the PL in 2023-24 via the Championship play-offs [@TheAthleticFC]
oh no carrick didnโt write negative things about his employers at the time considering the fact he still won stuff with them in charge!!!
