Man United lost the 191st Manchester derby at Old Trafford on Sunday, with Pep Guardiola's Manchester City dominant after Erling Haaland's penalty.
Danny Murphy believes Manchester United players are not putting the work in defensively as they won't face any repercussions from Erik ten Hag.
City then went on to dominate the rest of the game, keeping possession with ease and regaining the ball quickly when called upon. And former midfielder Murphy has slammed an apparent lack of effort in covering the hard yards.ALSO READ: Ten Hag defends benching Varane despite defeat to City "Too many United players get away with defending when they want and not defending when they want. It's really basic stuff they're not doing. Physically united were nowhere near it fitness-wise."
"They didn’t run," the Reds boss said. "They run in the wrong moments, too late – especially the front. They didn’t recover. It happened, you can’t turn it around. It’s a demand here if you want to win games."
