Manchester United are now running out of steam as the end of a forgotten campaign nears.
A 3-0 win over Brentford on Monday kept the team’s hopes of a Champions League finisher alive, although Arsenal’s win over Leeds United on Sunday would see the Red Devils officially play in next season’s Europa League would.
United can continue to play their part in applying pressure and have a trip to Brighton and Hove Albion in store for them on Saturday night before the end of the season against Crystal Palace.
As much as many members of the club want a quick end to the season, longtime coach Erik ten Hag will no doubt be keeping an eye on these arguments.
Who are the players who deserved a chance in United’s last two games? Let us know in the comments below!
Ten Hag calls Ronaldo
Ten Hag is said to be keen on Cristiano Ronaldo playing a key role at Old Trafford next season.
Although the 37-year-old has hit the ball repeatedly this season, the launch of a new system in the summer has led some to question whether the veteran striker will be part of the Dutchman’s plans.
However, Ten Hag is reportedly keen on working with Ronaldo and is already working on a plan that can bring out the best in the Portuguese and capitalize on his scoring chances.
Ten Hag will reportedly change Ronaldo at various points in the season, meaning the former Real Madrid and Juventus marksman will have to reconcile himself to not being in the starting XI every week.
