One thing is for sure, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is his own man and not afraid to make difficult decisions - and there are some who will feel that he should scrutinise the positions of Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox as well.

There is no doubt they will be aware of the level of anger that surrounds Manchester United at the moment and they will be sensitive to the suggestion that you can just chop and change managers, as has been the case at Old Trafford in recent years, because the situation doesn't seem to improve.

They will also be mindful of the fact they did have a relatively successful transfer window last year, and that Michael Carrick had a successful season and got them into the Champions League again.

On the other hand, nobody can deny the predicament they are in right now is very concerning. Therefore, the expectation is that they will recommend a change.

They helped Ratcliffe decide to back Erik ten Hag and then to sack him, to relieve former director of football Dan Ashworth of his duties, to hire and then fire previous manager Ruben Amorim, and then make Carrick a permanent manager - so it may be that Ratcliffe has lost a little bit of faith in the decisions they have made and thinks there needs to be more of a structural change as well.

There is some scrutiny on Wilcox, as the director of football, in terms of some of the recruitment calls that have been made.

It will be fascinating to see what Sir Jim does. The other thing to bear in mind is that whatever is discussed on Wednesday will then have to also be put to the Glazer family, who are still the majority owners of Manchester United.

I wouldn't expect a decision to be made public until Thursday.
