  • FULL-TIME THOUGHTS: SEVILLA 5-2 MANCHESTER UNITED #UEL
  • Sevilla showed why they remain the team to beat when it comes to the Europa League and are looking like serious favourites for this year's edition. #UEL
  • Manchester United clearly need to solve their goalkeeping problems for the sake of the club's future. David de Gea for all of his achievements is in decline and that showed once again today. #UEL
  • The Red Devils missed the presence of Bruno Fernandes, a huge testament to how crucial the Portugues playmaker is to Ten Hag's set-up. United look absolutely clueless and lacked spark in the final third.#UEL
  • A simple lesson Ten Hag can also learn is never to pai Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof in centre-back from this point onwards. That combo is just a calamity waiting to happen.#UEL
  • Erik ten Hag was once more denied his first major European trophy as a coach, but the Red Devils boss already have silverware to show in his first full season in charge of the club. #UEL
  • Sevilla won this contest because they wanted it more - it's that simple. #UEL
  • Ten Hag on how big an opportunity tonight was: "Huge. It's gone, we can't change it anymore and we have to look forward to Sunday because coming is the next opportunity." #UEL
  •  Ten Hag: "When you're at this level and playing for #mufc you have to be ready for every game." #UEL

  • Erik Ten Hag on if he still trusts the players: "Yes, because we showed so many occasions good performances and good wins. But tonight and some occasions more, we were not ready for the game and it can't be." #UEL
