Manager Erik ten Hag asserts that Manchester United are back where they belong, but the Dutchman thinks they must strengthen this summer if they are to make the development he requires. Manchester United comfortably defeated a poor Chelsea team 4-1 at Old Trafford to secure their Champions League spot with one game remaining.
Casemiro gave the home team the lead with a header, and Anthony Martial doubled their advantage by sweeping in a pass from Jadon Sancho at a close range. Wesley Fofana was fouled by Bruno Fernandes, who then added United's third goal from the penalty spot.
Marcus Rashford added a fourth goal as a result of another Fofana mistake, while Joao Felix provided a late consolation for the Blues, who suffered their 16th defeat overall and eighth under Frank Lampard in 10 games. Due to the outcome, United will play in the Champions League instead of longtime rival Liverpool who have to settle for Europa League spot.
