Erik Ten Hag was disappointed with United’s performance against Leeds on Wednesday

“I start my halftime talk with ‘hey guys, we’re not ready, make sure you’re ready’ and then we head out. [and concede again] And that is the point. I am disappointed that we lost all the battles in the first minutes of each half.

‘You can say we won a point because when you’re in a derby and you come back from 2-0 down it’s good. But on the other hand, when you start a derby like we did, it’s unacceptable. You have to be ready to fight and we were not ready to fight.
