"Certainly we're not going to have games with the emotion and the feeling of everything that today brought. I think we all understand that, but there's definitely levels of standards and expectations that we need to live up to from ourselves as much as anyone on the outside. I'm fairly aware of that."
"Consistency is the key to any success, and if you can find that then you're on to a winner. So that's our challenge, we've got to find a way of doing that. It's a big one next week obviously, another tough one, but on the back of today we've got a good foundation to build on."
Michael Carrick's first game in charge produced a 2-0 Manchester United victory over Manchester City at Old Trafford, with goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Patrick Dorgu. United dominated for nearly the full match, restricting City to a single shot on target and seeing three additional goals ruled out for offside. Carrick, appointed on Tuesday and taking training on Wednesday, emphasized the need to reproduce the performance and find consistency ahead of a tough trip to Arsenal. The win ended a four-game winless run and was only United's second home derby win over City since 2020. Preparation and player standards were highlighted.
