Manchester United held off a Leeds comeback to defeat Marcelo Bielsa’s side in a high-octane match at Elland Road on Sunday.

Ralf Rangnick’s side has reinforced their hold on fourth place in the Premier League table, moving four points ahead of fifth-placed West Ham.

Man United’s expectations, according to Murphy, “have to be higher.”

“The only thing I can say about [Manchester] United is that this is how far they’ve come, which is a shame because they’re a wonderful club,” Murphy told talkSPORT.

“However, they were enjoying their win at Leeds – which secured fourth place for the time being – as if they had won the title.”

“All right, passion and emotion — I get it. But this is Manchester United. Okay, they’ve moved up to the fourth place. Congratulations, boys, on your victory at Leeds, who have conceded the second-most goals in the Premier League.

Danny Murphy also noted that Man United has spent the most in the League in recent times and need to do better.

After winning the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé is expected to be announced as a new signing by Real Madrid the following week.

In February, the 25-year-old international athlete made his choice. He can now be regarded as a new Real player because every document has been completed, sealed, and signed.

As per media reports, Kylian Mbappé joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer. “.. I wanted to announce to you all that it’s my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
