    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Tuchel believes there is extra pressure on Ten Hag and his United players because so many pundits in the media are former Red Devils stars. Despite their struggles, the Bayern Munich coach says United will pose a big threat when they visit the German giants in the Champions League on Wednesday.

  3. WHAT THEY SAID?

    "Your start to the season doesn't say much. They were never really out of the game against Brighton either. They have a lot of individual quality and are extremely dangerous," he told reporters.

    He added: "I felt with Man United there was always a lot of noise, a lot of pundits are ex-players from Man United, you have this legacy from Sir Alex Ferguson, which creates a lot of pressure. It tells you you work at a big club, big expectations."
