6 matches played, only 2 wins, and being 15th in the Premier League so far this season with a club of Manchester United's stature isn't an achievement Erik Ten Hag can be proud of.
Their most recent victory came more than 2 weeks ago, a 7-0 thumping of League One's Barnsley in the league cup - but it hasn't been all fairytales since.
A 0-0 stalemate against Crystal Palace, a 1-1 draw at home to FC Twente, a 3-0 humiliation at home against Spurs, and a 3-3 draw against Porto this mid week with captain Bruno Fernandes seeing red in the latter two matches.
Yet, Ten Hag comes out with a strong statement after the draw in Portugal: "Don't judge us in this moment, judge us at the end of the season."

"We are in the process. Just WAIT !" Erik ten Hag has sent a clear message to Manchester United fans after their Europa League draw with Porto. pic.twitter.com/EGeAMeYdiU

Fifth place Aston Villa on the other hand seems to be enjoying the time of their lives. Sitting right behind Chelsea with 13 points, their only defeat of the season came from in-form Arsenal.
They enjoyed a groundbreakng victory against German giants Bayern Munich a few days ago, with Jhon Duran producing another supersub performance that shocked the world of European football.
Momentum seems to be on Villa's side, but will United find a way to turn things around to get back on track? Let us know here.
