Erik ten Hag spoke to the media ahead of this Sunday’s Manchester derby against City at Old Trafford.

"I think it's a match above many other derbies. It's so huge because it's Manchester internally, but it's also about world football. All the eyes will be on this game globally."

"I said we are in the right direction, and we have a way to go. I see positives, I see also negatives, which is probably what Christian is referring to. We are not consistently, in possession, on the level where we can be, where we show in games we can be. Like for instance, Arsenal away. Also, the first 30 minutes in Bayern Munich away. But we should do this on a consistent basis. But pressing, we are quite good. We have the most ball regains from the whole Premier League, we have the most middle regains from the whole Premier League. So, there you see, our defensive organisation, our pressing organisation. I said before the season how we wanted to play, that is us. But then, we don't take the benefit in the attacking transition moments, and we should be because we have the abilities in our team, the players there who can take benefit from it. We paid some attention to it, and this has to grow, this has to progress. Then games will become easier."
