Erik ten Hag has warned his Manchester United players that a \u2018mad\u2019 Everton will be fired up by a sense of injustice when the two clubs meet at Goodison Park on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The Merseysiders have been hit with a 10-point deduction for breaching the Premier League\u2019s financial regulations, dropping from 14th place to second from bottom in the table.<\/p>\n
They are the first Premier League club to be docked points for the offence and Ten Hag is expecting a backlash from Sean Dyche\u2019s team.<\/p>\n
\u2018I can see the opposition, I can see they are mad,\u2019 said the United boss. \u2018Finally, it’s about us. If they are mad, that’s their fuel. We have to match those standards. If we match the standards we have a very good chance to win the game.\u2019<\/p>\n
Asked about the points deduction, Ten Hag added: \u2018I can’t tell because I don’t know the details about it, I don’t have an opinion. I can imagine Everton fans are very mad. We can do nothing about it. We have to match their standards.\u2019<\/p>\n

United go into the game as the Premier League\u2019s form team with four wins from five games, but are struggling in Europe ahead of Wednesday\u2019s crucial Champions League tie away to Galatasaray.<\/p>\n
\u2018Definitely, we have seen a turning point,\u2019 said Ten Hag. \u2018We have seen how we deal with certain situations but now we build on it. We go into a massive month. We are looking really forward and confident. In the Premier League, everyone is winning from everyone and teams will drop points. We have won four of the last five games.\u2019<\/p>\n
A tough week ends with a trip to Newcastle, and Ten Hag said: \u2018We go in a week, very condensed, we play three games in six days. As a squad, we have to deal with that. Of course, we have a plan, a strategy for it. We make the players aware and they have to take responsibility for it, but it’s about co-operation.\u2019<\/p>\n
Ten Hag will be banned from the touchline at Goodison Park after picking up his third booking of the season in the win over Luton a fortnight ago.<\/p>\n
He added: \u2018Let’s say this: it’s a ban and you are not always agreeing with the refereeing, I think many decisions against us this season. I saw a number: 18 in the league. But still I have to accept it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘The advantage is I could have a better view (from the stands). Definitely, you have to behave yourself there (on the touchline), even when they make mistakes.\u2019<\/p>\n
