Imagine having somebody who has done your job considerably better than you constantly hanging around the place.
They will always be judging you. Always having an opinion on how things should be done. Even if those thoughts are not voiced, you will always be wondering what they are thinking.
It would be made even worse if that person then had a say in whether you get sacked or not.
It can't be a nice feeling; that's why it must be a breath of fresh air for Erik ten Hag that Sir Alex Ferguson will be axed next summer.
The primary reason Sir Jim Ratcliffe is taking Ferguson off the books is to save £2.16 million a year.
It's outrageous that he was commanding a salary higher than Kobbie Mainoo and Amad Diallo in the first place.
But Ten Hag should be able to sit a bit more comfortably and get on with his job without the eyes of a club legend glaring over his shoulder.

At least he was able to shake it off dancing to Taylor Swift at a friend's wedding this week.
Now he has six races to try and be an anti-hero and deny Lando Norris a first title.
