Christian Eriksen highlighted the pressure on Manchester United ahead of their Europa League match against Real Sociedad. With the club out of both domestic cups and struggling in the league, their path to European qualification seems limited. A win in the Europa League, following a draw in the first leg, presents a potential route to Champions League entry next season. Eriksen emphasized the necessity of performing well and the club's expectations to be competing at a higher level than their current league position.
"We know the pressure, we know the situation we're in in the league. To get into Europe next season we have to win a lot of games in the league or go through the Europa League, so we know there's a lot of pressure on that game."
"We want to be higher. We're at United, so we have to be higher. But in the end the ball is still rolling on the pitch so we have to focus on the football and look at the table hopefully at the end of the season when we end up higher."
