Erik Ten Hag hopes Manchester United will channel their frustration into a strong performance against Porto in the Europa League. Following a crushing 3-0 defeat to Spurs, the Dutch manager, who faces mounting job pressure, expressed his squad’s disappointment and frustration.

Ten Hag remarked that Bruno Fernandes’ overturned red card heightened the team’s frustration, but believes they can turn their anger into motivation. United must now deliver results in both the Europa League and an upcoming Premier League clash against Aston Villa to relieve the pressure on Ten Hag.

Despite being without injured Mason Mount, Ten Hag remains optimistic and refuses to panic, having faced similar situations before. Porto’s coach, Vitor Bruno, anticipates a difficult match against a “world-class” United side, warning that underestimating them would be a grave mistake. United’s current form may be shaky, but Bruno emphasizes the need for vigilance against their top talents.
