However, the 6-3 scoreline flattered United given the one-sided nature of an afternoon that Ten Hag’s side followed up with an unimpressive 3-2 win at Omonia Nicosia in the Europa League on Thursday. The Dutc...

Premier League

Cristiano Ronaldo is ‘furious’ with Erik ten Hag and is questioning his ‘stubborn’ methods at Manchester United, according to reports.
