Ten Hag dismisses 'crisis' talk as United's troubles mount

MANCHESTER, England — Never before in the Premier League era had Manchester United lost three of its first five games at the start of a season.

Losing 3-1 to Brighton on Saturday, Erik ten Hag's team wrote its name into the club's history books for the wrong reasons.

It was no surprise then that the United manager was asked afterward if this losing run represented a crisis.
