Erik ten Hag says he can’t speed up Manchester United’s progress

The season has been bumpy but the Red Devils have so far enjoyed several wins over the likes of Liverpool, Tottenham and table-topping Arsenal, leaving them sixth ahead of a home game against West Ham on Sunday, 30 October.

"To develop the team takes time,” the football manager said.

“You can’t go from zero to 100."
