Bruno Fernandes admits Man United were haunted by 'ghosts from the past' during Brighton loss and Brentford thrashing but Erik ten Hag has restored discipline and confidence after the team drifted under Ralf Rangnick

Bruno Fernandes has admitted he felt the 'ghosts from the past' haunting Manchester United when they crashed to defeat in their first two games of the season - but believes Erik ten Hag has given them an identity and belief.

They lost 2-1 at home to Brighton on the opening weekend of the campaign before going down to a shocking 4-0 defeat at Brentford, erasing the positivity of pre-season.

United endured a calamitous afternoon at the Gtech Community Stadium in their second Premier League game of the campaign, conceding four goals in a 25-minute spell during the first-half to leave them bottom of the table.
