And things are not getting much better off the field as the Red Devils were hit with delays to their journey to Portugal.
Man Utd are set to kick off their second Europa League game of the season against Porto at 8pm BST on Thursday evening.
They were due to take off for Portugal around 3pm on Wednesday, but did not leave until 6.10pm due to foggy and rainy conditions.
Ten Hag’s press conference was due to take place at 7pm but has now been pushed back to 8.30pm.
Fans have also suffered delays to their journeys.
It’s the most recent annoyance for manager Ten Hag, who reportedly has two games left to save his job.
Man Utd will travel to Aston Villa on Sunday for an away Premier League game after their trip to Porto.
In their first-ever Europa League match, they were held to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford by FC Twente.
They have already lost three games, starting with a goalless draw against Crystal Palace, before falling to Spurs.
The captain, Bruno Fernandes, will be able to play against Villa despite receiving a red card against Tottenham.
Because Man Utd successfully appealed the ruling, the Portuguese playmaker is spared a three-match suspension.
