Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, delivered a passionate speech after his side's hard-fought 3-2 win against Newcastle United at Old Trafford on Wednesday, May 15.
The Dutch boss issued the rallying cry to the supporters amid boos ahead of the upcoming FA Cup final against Manchester City later this month.
This wasn't the first time the underfire manager had taken to the pitch for such an address.
