Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is facing mounting pressure after a disappointing start to the season, including back-to-back defeats to Brighton and Liverpool, leaving the team sitting 14th in the league. As the team prepares for a challenging Europa League draw, Ten Hag is set to face his former club FC Twente, which he supports, emphasizing the need to focus on winning despite the emotional ties. Key players like Leny Yoro and Rasmus Højlund are expected to return from injury, which could bolster the squad amid concerns over recent performances. Former United player Nicky Butt has publicly defended Ten Hag, urging the club's hierarchy to grant him more time to implement changes as new signings settle in. Despite the struggles, Butt and others believe that the international break will provide an opportunity for Ten Hag to regroup and strategize for upcoming matches. The pressure is palpable, but there is a consensus that Ten Hag deserves continued support to turn the team's fortunes around.
