Respectful Emery wary of United's winning mentality
The Straits Times
|October 06, 2024
Unai Emery praised the under-pressure Erik ten Hag on Oct 4 as the Aston Villa boss labelled Manchester United "the best team in the world" despite their dismal form.
-
But despite all the good words, the Spaniard can make ten Hag's position even more precarious if his side beat United in their English Premier League clash at Villa Park on Oct 6.
The Red Devils have just seven points from six games following last weekend's woeful 3-0 home defeat against Tottenham Hotspur. Villa, in contrast, have 13.
Ten Hag's cause was hardly helped in midweek when United blew a two-goal lead against Porto in the Europa League and needed Harry Maguire's late goal to rescue a 3-3 draw.
Villa, meanwhile, are riding high after an impressive 1-0 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
With speculation mounting that United co-owner Jim Ratcliffe could axe ten Hag, Emery defended the Dutchman ahead of their meeting.
