Erik ten Hag has another Manchester United concern to address vs Burnley

Erik ten Hag had plenty to ponder after Wednesday's defeat at Bayern Munich but the Manchester United boss will have been most concerned by the opening two goals.

United started their Champions League group stage clash incredibly positively, surprising just about everyone with their intensity and the way in which they ruffled Bayern feathers.
