Having seen his team endure a drop off in form in recent weeks, Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has made a special transfer plea to the club.

This past weekend, the Red Devils lost 2-0 to Newcastle United at St. James' Park as the Mancunian's saw Eddie Howe's men go above them in the Premier League table.
In that game, the Dutch tactician was without the midfield duo of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen and has insisted that the club's hierarchy back him during the off-season so that injuries to players are not as detrimental to his team.
"I think we knew before the start of the season...we need outstanding players at Manchester United, that is clear," Ten Hag told members of the media before their Wednesday's night encounter against Brentford, as per Goal.
"If you have injuries you need replacements and competition, especially if you want to compete in four competitions."
The 20-time English champions have lost four of the nine games in which their talismanic Brazilian has not taken part in, according to Squawka, but the 53-year-old has insisted that the club should be winning without him regardless.

"And second for a manager because when your best players are available you have a better chance of winning games. But it's the same for Casemiro and Eriksen, they are very important players but when they are not available, you still have to win," he added.
