The rollercoaster 2022/23 season continues for Manchester United today.
After a rough start to the Premier League campaign, United manager Erik ten Hag has seemingly righted the ship as the Red Devils have reeled off four straight victories in the domestic circuit. The most recent win was an impressive 3-1 result over the weekend against Premier League-leading Arsenal, who hadn't previously dropped any points.
Now, a confident United side heads into the Europa League against Real Sociedad, currently ninth in La Liga after a 2-1-1 start to the campaign.
"Spanish football is always really skilful and technical and you see the great abilities of the players. You have to be aware of that and make a good plan to fight them and to win that game," Ten Hag said.
"It’s always good for the development of the team to face different systems and styles and to find answers and solutions.
"We come into Europe now and into the next phase of the season and it will help us as a team and we will get better from it and improve."
