Gary Neville has assessed Erik ten Hag's start to life at Manchester United after the Red Devils secured their fifth successive Premier League win with a 2-1 victory over Manchester City on Saturday.
Goals from Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford earned the Red Devils a major scalp in the Manchester derby after Jack Grealish had given the visitors the lead at Old Trafford. It was a result that moved United temporarily into third - within a point of Pep Guardiola's City - and five ahead of fifth-place Tottenham before Newcastle's win over Fulham.
After losing his first two games in charge against Brighton and Brentford, Ten Hag has guided United to 12 wins from 16 top-flight matches - a run that has seen them climb into a somewhat of a title race. The Dutchman has managed to get the best out of a previously out-of-form Rashford, while Luke Shaw and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are playing at their highest level for years.
