Erik ten Hag is convinced “it is only a matter of time” until Manchester United show their “true selves” after a poor start to the campaign was compounded in the Manchester derby. Sunday’s 3-0 home humbling at the hands of neighbours Manchester City provided the exclamation mark on a difficult start to the Dutchman’s second season in the hotseat. United were outclassed and outthought for the most part at Old Trafford, where Ten Hag’s men will attempt to bounce back in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup fourth-round clash against Newcastle. “At Manchester United, every game involves high stakes,” the Red Devils boss said ahead of the repeat of last season’s Carabao Cup final. “Every single day, there is pressure on everybody involved with this club, but those demands and standards are a challenge which we must always meet head-on. “While this has not been the start to the season that we had all hoped for, I am certain that we have the talent and attitude as a collective to move in the right direction. “I believe that it is only a matter of time before we are showing our true selves. It will come, I am certain.” Ten Hag’s comments came in his manager’s notes for Wednesday’s edition of the matchday programme, United Review. Emotions will have been raw when producing the column in the aftermath of the City defeat but the Red Devils boss is only focused on improved performances and results. “There is no point in feeling sorry for ourselves at this moment in time,” Ten Hag said. “Nobody at this club enjoys defeat, particularly in a Manchester derby like last Sunday, but everything we have achieved together so far has been built on looking forward, which means we have to move on quickly from what happens, whether it is positive or negative. “We have never spent too long enjoying our victories, so we will not spend too much time thinking about our losses. We must always look forward, together. “I continue to believe in these players and am confident we will improve after a difficult start to the season. “On Sunday, in the first half particularly, we showed good defensive discipline and we created opportunities to counter-attack, but we were unable to capitalise on those chances at decisive times in the game. “Important moments went against us and we were once again reminded that any mistake is punished at the highest level. “Before the derby, we won three games in a row and demonstrated our character on each occasion, so we have developed in recent weeks. “We are also gradually getting some players back from injury, which gives us more options and allows us to select players in their natural positions.” Injuries have been a key mitigating factor in United’s shaky start, with Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Amad Diallo ruled out of the Manchester derby. Four of those played key roles in February’s Carabao Cup triumph against Newcastle – a day that has so far proven the high point of Ten Hag’s reign, rather than the catalyst for further success. “As we welcome Eddie Howe and Newcastle United to Old Trafford, our focus moves back to the Carabao Cup and a reminder of how well we did to win this competition last season,” Ten Hag said “Our game management throughout that cup run, especially in the final against Newcastle, showed our ability to rise to big occasions – and tonight is definitely another big occasion for us. “We always want to do as well as we possibly can in every competition we enter. “We know how good it feels to lift this trophy and, as holders, we want to get back to Wembley Stadium again this season and defend the Carabao Cup.” Read More Carlos Alcaraz stunned by Roman Safiullin at Paris Masters Alex Greenwood suffers head injury in England’s clash with Belgium We’re better than that – Dawid Malan deflects England heat from Matthew Mott Sir Bobby Charlton funeral announced for November 13 Inquiry into ice hockey player’s death will take some time, police say Colombian police continue search for Luis Diaz’s kidnapped father

Mauricio Pochettino defended Nicolas Jackson after the misfiring Chelsea striker was criticised by supporters during the Blues’ 2-0 home defeat to Brentford. Jackson has scored two Premier League goals since his summer move from Villarreal. Pochettino clarified that a fan had told the striker to “wake up” after a poor first-half display. Ahead of their last-16 Carabao Cup clash against Blackburn, the Chelsea boss supported his player. “We cannot abuse, even if you say ‘wake up’, because I think it’s not right,” Pochettino told a press conference on Tuesday. “He suffered an injury (to his hand during the last international break), it’s difficult to train, to keep fit and to score goals. “Nico (Jackson) needs support. “He wants to help the team and for different reasons he’s not performing. He played with a cast after he broke his hand. “Fans can criticise us and they’re frustrated but they need to analyse the situation. “Jackson is young, he arrived this season and there are circumstances that didn’t help him perform his best. He’s our striker, he’s our player and it’s about supporting the player Mauricio Pochettino on Nicolas Jackson “You think we should throw him into the bin and say he’s useless? We have to give the confidence. “He’s our striker, he’s our player and it’s about supporting the player.” Chelsea’s lack of cutting-edge in front of goal saw them beaten at home for the third time this season. Argentinian Pochettino wants his young team to be more “aggressive and nasty”, but noted that will come with experience. He added: “We didn’t score because we need to decide ourselves. “We were not aggressive enough and that’s why they had their chance in the second half and we conceded. “We need to improve and to be more competitive, more nasty. “That is experience, team experience, as a team we need more patience. “We need to be competitive; I feel the responsibility and we are Chelsea, we need to win this type of game.” Read More Erik ten Hag says ‘only a matter of time’ until Manchester United form improves Alex Greenwood suffers head injury in England’s clash with Belgium We’re better than that – Dawid Malan deflects England heat from Matthew Mott Sir Bobby Charlton funeral announced for November 13 Inquiry into ice hockey player’s death will take some time, police say Colombian police continue search for Luis Diaz’s kidnapped father

US Vice President Kamala Harris has arrived in the UK ahead of attending Rishi Sunak’s summit focused on the safe use of artificial intelligence (AI). Ms Harris touched down at Stansted Airport on Tuesday evening with her husband Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff for the summit. She will represent the US at Bletchley Park, near Milton Keynes, on Wednesday and Thursday in place of President Joe Biden. French President Emmanuel Macron will also not be in attendance, whilst Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz are also believed to be unlikely to show up. But Downing Street denied on Monday that the summit was being snubbed by world leaders. Elon Musk, the Tesla CEO and owner of the social media site X, will attend and join Mr Sunak for a live interview after the summit closes. The Prime Minister hopes the summit on AI safety will cement the UK’s status as a leading world player in the cutting-edge technology. Mr Sunak also said last week that mitigating the risk of extinction because of AI should be a global priority alongside pandemics and nuclear war. It comes as Mr Biden signed an executive order on AI on Monday, and said the technology was driving change at “warp speed” and carries tremendous potential as well as perils. The order seeks to steer how AI is developed so that companies can profit without putting public safety in jeopardy. Using the Defence Production Act, it requires leading AI developers to share safety test results and other information with the government.
