Manchester United travel to Burnley in the Premier League

A big game for MUFC to get back on track.

Transcript

00:00 And onto the Premier League, Burnley away up next.

00:02 Obviously, this could be a good time for Ten Hag to have to rip up those tactics and go there

00:09 and just try and get three points because they have started very, very poorly, Burnley.

00:13 Yeah, I mean, I watched the game against Forrest on Monday night

00:16 because Forrest and Burnley between them played the two Manchester clubs actually this weekend.

00:21 So it was on a mini scout mission, I suppose.

00:24 But Burnley had moments in the game, had little spells in the game.

00:30 The left winger, whose name's completely eluded me, apologies.

00:33 I thought he played really well.

00:35 They're not going to roll over, I'll put it like that.

00:41 But there's nothing there that would particularly concern me.

00:44 I think, I mean, you said it's a good time to play Burnley.

00:46 And I fully understand that way of thinking and I can see the logic behind it.

00:51 I also think that for United at the moment, it is just a terrible time to play a side at the bottom of the league

00:56 because if they go and win, no one will say anything they're expected to go and win.

00:59 And if they don't win against Burnley, even if they don't play well,

01:02 the question Ten Hag is going to face is going to be really under the spotlight.

01:07 And, you know, United need three points, but they need a good performance

01:12 because United have played, what is it, five games now this season.

01:16 At best, you would say none of the five performances have been good.

01:19 I think you could arguably say all five performances have been poor.

01:22 So he needs to just get into these players and get them performing again.

01:26 We are recording this, as I say, a couple of hours before the Champions League game.

01:29 So, you know, we're not totally sure how, you know, obviously how that will impact going into the Burnley game.

01:34 But, you know, I'd be amazed if they go to the Allianz and get something personally.

01:38 And he just needs a good performance and three points to reset, calm, you know, the vultures that are sweeping overhead.

01:47 You know, I include myself in this next point in, you know, the media spotlight under him.

01:52 You know, sadly, he has made errors and mistakes in the first couple of weeks.

01:55 And it's no surprise that there are questions being asked of certain things he's done.

01:59 So, yeah, there's a lot going on.

02:02 And it is a really important game for United this weekend.
