Manchester United have told Erik ten Hag he will have to oversee an evolution rather than revolution of the squad when he takes over with club chiefs distancing themselves from Ralf Rangnick's suggestion that as many as 10 players could arrive in the summer. The Dutchman will get a veto on any signings and has also been given scope to influence shortlists of targets for key positions he believes he strengthened. Ten Hag's summer budget -- set at between £100 million and £150m -- will be bolstered by any outgoings, and the club are willing to listen to offers for Eric Bailly, Phil Jones, Anthony Martial, Alex Telles and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Nemanja Matic, Edinson Cavani and Juan Mata are set to leave on free transfers.

It's been a great run for Villarreal in the Champions League, but it looks like it's coming to an end.

Goal would've helped but 2-0 isn't an insurmountable lead.

It would still be something to see them comeback though, Liverpool were by far the better team.

In the good old days with away goals this tie would be over I think. Not now though, although it does seem unlikely they'll stop Liverpool from scoring next week.

Back in my day, we called that being a ball hog.

Next highest scorer is Bruno with 9. After that, Mason Greenwood with 5. Greenwood hasn't played since January.

Just a shambles of a team behind him. Doesn't help that him and Bruno don't really connect all that well.

The common theme regarding the pundits on Man United has been a failure of recruitment. Also plenty of speculation that the dressing room is a nightmare.

I'm not a fan of Pickford (I think he calls out his defenders way too much), but holy crap, what a sequence of saves here...
