Man United reached the Europa League final by playing poorly enough to remind everyone why they need the Europa League to save their season.

Ange Postecoglou is not resting on his laurels ahead of the Europa League final despite never losing to Manchester United as Tottenham manager. Tottenham beat Bodo/Glimt 2-0 in Norway on Thursday as United thumped Athletic Club 4-1 at Old Trafford to set up an all-English European showpiece on May 21.

For Manchester United or Tottenham, a miserable campaign will end in Europa League glory. Despite both teams languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League, the Champions League is now just one game away.
