Erik ten Hag said Manchester United’s Champions League place was ‘something like’ winning a trophy due to the difficulty of the Premier League after qualification was sealed with Thursday’s 4-1 win over Chelsea: ‘Due to the Premier League’s toughness. This club belongs in the Champions League. It’s not easy in the Premier League as a lot compete for that. It’s massive when you get it done. We’re still not where we want to be but we’re back in the Champions League and I think that was a really important step.’
