Unite manager Ten Hag admits there will be questions over recent poor results
Erik Ten Hag says he accepts there will be questions over his position as Manchester United manager following a second 3-nil defeat in a week at Old Trafford.
The English League Cup loss to Newcastle was United's 8th defeat this season - and the pressure is on ahead of the Premier League game at Fulham on Saturday.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has lauded the performance of 20 year old Jarell Quansah in last night's win at Bournemouth.
The defender produced an assured performance in difficult conditions and his manager singled him out for praise.
The quarter final line up for the League Cup will see Liverpool at home to West Ham United, Newcastle go to Chelsea, Everton host Fulham and Port Vale take on Middlesbrough.
