Man Utd news LIVE: Erik ten Hag sack latest, Sir Alex Ferguson snub, replacement named

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag finds himself under huge pressure at Old Trafford following an awful run of results and the Red Devils were not able to find a positive result against Porto

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag remains under huge pressure.

The Dutchman has overseen the Red Devils' joint worst-ever start in Premier League history. Club chiefs were happy to stick with him for the time being, but gave this week's two games to prove he was the man for the job.

And United are off to an awful start. They led a 2-0 lead slip against Porto in the Europa League, even going 3-2 behind, before Harry Maguire equalised in stoppage time. Captain Bruno Fernandes was sent off for the second consecutive game.

Ten Hag now desperately needs a result against Aston Villa this weekend. Legendary boss Sir Alex Ferguson has already snubbed his former side having reportedly named a replacement for Ten Hag should he be moved on.

Sir Alex snubs Red Devils

Sir Alex Ferguson regularly attends Man United away games - but chose not to last night as the pressure cranks up on Erik ten Hag.

He was spotted at Rangers' 4-1 defeat to Lyon at Ibrox. But he still managed to keep tabs on the game having been spotted discussing the final score after Maguire's equaliser.

Maguire rescues Red Devils in Porto

So, what exactly happened last night?

The Red Devils looked to be on their way to a comfortable win after strikes from Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Hojlund. Pepe pulled a goal back for Porto before Samu Omorodion netted a brace to complete the turnaround for the hosts.

Things then got worse for United as Bruno Fernandes was sent off once again. But Maguire stepped up late on with a last-gasp equaliser.
