Manchester United will attempt to recover from another demoralising defeat that raised fresh questions over manager Erik ten Hag’s future as they head to Porto in the Europa League on Thursday.

The record 20-time English champions are off to their joint-worst start in the Premier League era, collecting just seven points from six games and scoring a mere five goals. United also began their European campaign in worrying fashion, drawing 1-1 at Old Trafford last week with Ten Hag’s former club Twente, a result midfielder Christian Eriksen said “feels like a loss”.
