Erik ten Hag insists Manchester United are going to make a success of the season , despite their difficult start to the 2024-25 campaign.
United are 12th in the Premier League, having collected just seven points; their joint-fewest after the first six games in a single season (matching their total from 2013-14 and 2020-21).
Sunday s 3-0 defeat by Tottenham at Old Trafford provided their latest setback, while increasing the pressure on Ten Hag, whose side face Porto in the Europa League on Thursday before returning to Premier League action against Aston Villa three days later.
Against Spurs, United conceded in the first three minutes of both halves in a single Premier League game for only the second time, while allowing their third-highest xG (4.59) by an opponent…
Tottenham have found a back-up for Harry Kane as Carlos Vinicius gets another chance in a top-five European league.
Benfica announced on Thursday they had reached an agreement to loan the forward to Spurs until the end of the season.
Tottenham also have a purchase option of £41million (€45m), minus the loan amount of £2.7million (€3m) should they decide to use it.
Jose Mourinho has his back-up for one of the Premier League s best forwards in Kane.
Using Opta data, we take a look at how Carlos Vinicius fared in 2019-20.
A prolific Primeira Liga campaign
Carlos Vinicius enjoyed the most prolific season of his career in 2019-20, scoring 18 Primeira Liga goals and 22 in all competitions.

The New Orleans Saints finally get to play at home after Hurricane Ida sent them packing to open the season. Sean Payton’s club will welcome a struggling and injured New York Giants team that has been held to 14 points or fewer twice to open the year.
The Saints head into their Week 4 matchup as 8-point home favorites which is more indicative of the state of the Giants than it is of how well the New Orleans offense is playing. Despite the hefty chalk, this game has one of the lowest totals on the board at 43.

Spain playmaker Xavi has given a strong indication that he will take part in the 2014 World Cup if he feels fit.
The 32-year-old, who had two assists for Spain in the 4-0 victory against Italy in the Euro 2012 final, had claimed on Saturday he was unsure about his future in the national team.
He will be 34 years old by the time the World Cup starts, but he does not rule out the possibility of making himself available for selection for the tournament in Brazil.
If I feel fine, I will be there, Xavi told Marca. I will speak with coach Vicente del Bosque but in principle, yes I will be there.
Xavi admitted that he had been lacking his incisive touch during Euro 2012, but returned to his best with an impressive display against Italy with two assists.

Phil Foden wants England s players to take responsibility as they aim to discover their best form at Euro 2024.
England have limped through the tournament so far, and looked to be heading out in the last 16 until Jude Bellingham s last-gasp overhead kick against Slovakia.
The Three Lions turned things around in extra time, with Harry Kane heading in the winner, but the level of their displays continues to be underwhelming.
Gareth Southgate, who will manage his 100th match in charge of England when they take on Switzerland on Saturday, has taken much of the criticism, but Foden says the players must shoulder responsibility.
The players have got to take some of the blame, Foden said.
There has to be some leaders to get together and find out a solu…
