So I think they all deserve to be in the Premier League Hall of Fame. "It is and we are looking forward to a big test and big challenges and it is a very good team, a very good manager. What does that tell you about the importance he has in this team and how well Bruno's doing? Christian Eriksen is back on the pitch, not yet in the team training but I expect him in the coming week, weeks, back in team training so will be available for games again. "I am proud of it because it also tells something about Manchester United and the process we are in. I think we had a good analysis, good evaluation, we set the right conclusions and from here on we have to move on."

"Because the whole season we improved and we are fit, we have the right spirit, and now we have to work on our game. My job is to lead and to manage the first team and to let them perform and to get the right results, and that is where I have to focus." So the players have the right attitude already. We need that in the final stage of the game because we play only finals. And so right now in preparation, I only think about that game from Newcastle and that's the only thing what's in my head. And for the rest, we have a plan of course, but the approach is that what happens in the first game always affects the next game. "In the end it's about about silverware and about top four. The lads came back with with a lot of energy, with a lot of spirit. "You set standards and shared values, but you have keep and control them and that's maybe the most difficult part of it. Assessing where he thinks United are at heading into the business end of the season, Ten Hag said: "So far so good, but season now starts! Ten Hag had circled that Lisandro Martinez, Marcus Rashford, Fred and Casemiro are also among the top 25 of that list. "We pointed it all to them," Ten Hag told Sky Sports News at the club's training base.

A win for the Magpies could see them leapfrog Man United as well as Tottenham in the race for a top-four spot.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has discussed whether Wout Weghorst could stay at the club following the expiration of his loan this summer.

He is really contributing to this team. I think he is doing a lot of elements of football really well. "Wout is doing a really good job for us. He is the leader of the process in pressing, he starts the press and is very good in backward pressing. I think after Christmas we have played 25 games and we lost two - and Weghorst played almost all of the games so he is really part of the success." He is also taking up (good) positions and in his link-up play he's doing really well.

Erik ten Hag has said a club like Manchester United must play Champions League football as he looks to guide them back into the competition.

I have noticed that last year when we were not in the Champions League but I want to make my point clear, we have to be in the Champions League." United's bid to finish in the top-four restarts on April 2 as they travel to Newcastle, with the Magpies also looking to end their absence from the competition. United can still qualify by finishing in the Premier League's top four, or by winning the Europa League. WHAT HE SAID: "Let's make one thing clear, we have to play Champions League football," Ten Hag said when asked about offering new signings the opportunity to play in Europe's elite competition. "A club like Manchester United has to play in the Champions League. However, he will not be satisfied unless they reach the Champions League next season.

Man Utd may be flying on all fronts but their dire away form is a concern as they face a battle to finish in the top four in the Premier League.

And unless they get a grip on it, they risk losing out on a place in the Premier League top four. Their record on the road is more than a little worrying, particularly against the top sides.

Erik ten Hag strongly hinted at which striker will become the first Man Utd signing this summer, though a second centre-forward is likely to arrive too.

A club like Manchester United has to act in the Champions League, so there’s no misunderstanding.” He is also good in the set plays. He starts the press and he is very good in the backward pressing. However, he’ll seemingly have to be willing to accept a bench role if a move to Old Trafford does go through. “I think he is doing a lot of elements of football really well. If both those players prove unattainable, the likes of Goncalo Ramos, Mohammed Kudus and Randal Kolo Muani are alternatives.

If Newcastle want to be playing in the UEFA Champions League next season, then this feels like a must-win game. But can the Magpies end their winless run ...

Alexander Isak appears to be the man with the golden touch right now, having scored three goals in his last two games as the injury woes that besieged his start to life in the Premier League appear to have subsided. Rashford has been involved in seven goals in his eight Premier League starts against Newcastle (four goals, three assists). The other two players to have netted nine winning goals this season – Erling Haaland and Harry Kane. No player has scored more winning goals in the competition than Rashford, with nine of his 14 strikes being the winner. But despite being winless in their last six Premier League games against Man Utd, the last two of those have been draws. On average this season, Newcastle’s Premier League games have lasted 98 minutes and 58 seconds this season, which is the third highest in the division. However, the ball in play average is just 51 minutes and 41 seconds, the lowest in the competition this term. It’s a victory that could prove vital for Manchester United in nailing down their hold on third place in the table. It was 27 years ago that Newcastle surrendered a 12-point lead at the top of the Premier League table to hand Manchester United the title. Man United have scored more Premier League goals against Newcastle (113) than any other opponent in the competition. James’ Park, their 14 wins away from the home are also the most they achieved against a single side away from Old Trafford. But can the Magpies end their winless run against Man Utd?

73 min Bruno robs Bruno on the halfway line and Newcastle break. He miscontrols the ball but recovers to rattle a shot that is crucially blocked by Botman. Antony is a little unfortunate to come off – and pretty aggrieved – as he’s been United’s liveliest attacker by far, but I suppose it was him or Rashford. Asking for a friend who’s interested in a match at the end of April.” But he gets to the ball first and launches it out to Willock on the left wing. Newcastle break and Gordon drives a dangerous low cross that is turned behind by Dalot. Martial was on the line and may have helped to force the ball against the post and away. It was a great performance and we’re glad to get the win and the clean sheet. De Gea pushes it against the underside of the bar, an outrageous reaction save, and then Schar heads the rebound against the post! We knew it had gone but it left a sour taste and we had to put it right today. He runs at Varane, cuts inside and shoots well wide from the edge of the area. 87 min Anderson’s cross is headed wide by Burn at the far post.
