00:00Eric ten Haag retains the backing of the Manchester United board ahead of a pivotal week in which they face FC Porto and Aston Villa away from home.
00:10There was fresh scrutiny over the future of the United boss after their demoralising defeat to Tottenham in the Premier League.
00:17United lost 3-0 for the fifth time in 12 months at Old Trafford to leave them 12th place in the Premier League.
00:24It was a match in which United were once again comfortably beaten by a team that, with all due respect, they feel they should be beating at home,
00:32particularly a Tottenham side who were without captain and talisman Heung-min Son.
00:38United looked lost, they looked like they had no real identity and perhaps that is the damning indictment that this is their identity.
00:45United were chaotic, they lost all composure amid adversity, they were terrible from the first few minutes.
00:52There were a few rallying moments in the second half and United still feel that ten Haag is the right man, certainly for the week ahead anyway.
01:01It is going to be interesting to see what the mood is like should United not win these next two games.
01:08Of course there is a lot more scope for them to resolve things in the Europa League due to the revamped format,
01:14but it is in the Premier League where Manchester United will ultimately always be graded and engaged against their domestic counterparts.
01:21It is business as usual for United today. They are just focused on those two games, looking to support ten Haag and hopefully turn this bad run of form behind.
01:32As things stand, ten Haag will be the United manager heading into the international break.
01:38You can stay with us on Manchester World for all the developments on that one and see what happens ahead of what is a pivotal few days for Manchester United and the future of their manager.
