Jose Mourinho clear on Manchester United objectives

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has said that his team are clear on what is required of them in Thursday's Europa League Group A match at home to Feyenoord.

The Red Devils currently sit third in Group A ahead of their penultimate match, but will qualify for the next round if they take four points from their final two Europa League group fixtures.

Mourinho has said that "there is no space for a defeat" against Feyenoord and has branded the clash "a knockout game" as the Premier League side look to remain in control of their own destiny.

"We need four points. There is no space for a defeat so tomorrow is a game where we have two options. Yes, we are going to approach that game knowing that. It's a knockout game," Mourinho told reporters.

Man United suffered a 1-0 defeat to Feyenoord when they travelled to Netherlands earlier this season.
