OPINION: Two Manchester United Away Games Which Could Help Turn A Good Season Into A Great One.

Manchester United have already lifted up the Carabao Cup this season in huge boost to Erik ten Hag. Especially in his first time as United manager which gives him more morale to continue as well doing what he started since his appointment back in the summer.

Next is FA Cup and Europa League trophies as main target then plan for next season. With a lethal striker and defender as well as a midfielder top on his wishlist as the manager. Which has as well seen Declan Rice, Gavi, Victor Osimhen, Harry Kane and the Ajax ace Timber among many players believed are in the radar of United gaffer.

Now according to Premier League standing currently the red’s in huge boost are in third position. But preparing to face Sevilla as well as a possibility of taking on the winner in Juventus against Sporting Lisbon to see red devils in the Europa League finals.

Which could end up being a challenge for Erik ten Hag in team selection having to possibly prioritise winning the two trophies at the expense of top four finish. However there is a way out in getting an assurance of top four finish as well as trying to then grab another silverware.

United must go to St James’ Park and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium before the end of the season. The trip to Newcastle is the first game after the international break. And the game at the Spurs turf comes after a week that includes the second leg in Seville and the Wembley semi-final with Brighton in FA Cup.

If they win both they will take a strong grip on third position and an almost immovable hold on the top four. It should allow Ten Hag to start rotating for the final weeks of the season. Ideal if his side is still in the running for two more trophies which are aforementioned.

Even a couple of draws would be acceptable for United, keeping them in control of the table, but defeats could be costly. It could result in a ratcheting up of the pressure when suddenly it will feel like there are two cup finals a week.
