Christian Eriksen has acknowledged the immense pressure on Manchester United to secure a win against Real Sociedad in their upcoming Europa League match. Currently, the tie stands at 1-1, and the team is struggling in the Premier League, sitting in 14th place with only 34 points. Eriksen highlighted that success is crucial not only for potential European competition next season but also to uplift their league standing. He also addressed the goal-scoring struggles of teammate Rasmus Hjlund, stressing that the team needs to support one another to rise above their current hurdles.
It's massive [the game against Sociedad], we know the pressure, we know the situation we're in in the league, Eriksen said. 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. But it also comes with being at this club. You play for trophies so we have to play well to go through.
Christian Eriksen emphasized the need for Manchester United to compete well against Real Sociedad, stating, "It's where they [United, in Europe] belong, but we don't belong in the lower half of the Premier League either... we have to focus on the football and look at the table hopefully at the end of the season when we end up higher."
