Manchester United Prepare for Manchester Derby

Erik ten Hag's side have enjoyed a relatively positive week in the build up, beating FC Copenhagen on Tuesday and going into the 191st Manchester derby with some momentum. They will hope to welcome Casemiro back for the clash, with the Brazilian facing a race against time to be fit following an injury picked up on international duty.

Ahead of the game, former United defender Jaap Stam has shared his verdict on United boss Ten Hag, while Dimitar Berbatov has spoken about his time at the club.Jaap Stam says Erik ten Hag has struggled to instil a style of play at Manchester United, adding that players bought for big fees are yet to live up to their price tag.

The Reds have won their last three matches in all competitions, albeit hardly convincingly. United were expected to beat Brentford, Sheffield United and Copenhagen but only managed one-goal margins amid late drama. United had gone through the pain of lengthy negotiations with Daniel Levy to try and reach an agreement that all parties could be happy with, but in a sign of things to come City turned up at the table and had a bid accepted straight away. The choice was now down to the player.
