Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag admits United have to play catch-up to Manchester City due to the side’s struggles this season.
However, the Dutchman is optimistic the team can make up on lost grounds ahead of this weekend’s Manchester derby.
During the pre-match press conference on Friday, October 27, he said (via @UnitedStandMUFC on X):
“In this moment they’re six points ahead, we’re six points back, we have to catch up. We know we have to progress the team, make developments. It has to do with the cooperation, the movement around it, we have to work on that.”
Currently, Unites are 8th in the Premier League table with 15 points from nine games, six points behind Manchester City.
Red Devils boss Ten Hag will be hoping the team can put in a more assured performance against the Cityzens on Sunday.
