Erik ten Hag has cautioned Manchester United fans about harbouring unrealistic expectations ahead of the FA Cup fourth-round clash with Newport County.
Urging fans and the media to focus only on the game ahead, Ten Hag told reporters: "I think [at] Manchester United you have to win trophies at the end of the day.
"And of course, Champions League is the most important with the Premier League. But then every trophy, every competition where you take part of, you have to win and that should be the mentality in this club.
"But in this moment, don’t dream of that [winning two trophies in two seasons] and think about the next game.
"100 per cent focus on that and not thinking about winning the FA Cup at this moment."
Understandably, Ten Hag doesn't wish to tempt fate, especially after losing the FA Cup to Manchester City in the final last season. That, of course, allowed them to complete the treble.
However, winning the FA Cup is fans' only source of joy this season. The Red Devils are already out of the League Cup, the Champions League and are 16 points behind leaders Liverpool in the Premier League.
