Erik ten Hag knows Tottenham will come out fighting on Thursday and has already warned his players to match that anger and desire.
United travel to north London on Thursday evening looking to further cement their place in the top-four, knowing three points would send them nine clear of their hosts. Spurs have endured a torrid week already, with that 6-1 defeat at Newcastle humiliating enough for Christian Stellini to lose his role as interim head coach.
Tottenham were 5-0 down inside 21 minutes and a large portion of their away following already on their way out of St James' Park. So dismal was their effort that on Tuesday, the players agreed to reimburse the fans who travelled.
