WHAT TEN HAG SAID
Speaking to club media, Ten Hag said: "No but we [now] have a start. The performance was good but the score we are not happy [with], we are disappointed with the score. It is clear. I know one thing for sure in football that there is a long way to go and when you play in the quality we now deliver, the points will come, the goals will come."

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Ten Hag also explained why his team are better equipped than last season. He added: "It is so different now because we can work on the team, we are building structures because we have players back on the training pitch. We can also have consistency in the selection and that helps of course to bring the patterns and routines in and you play better. You can take more control of the game and you can even, like in the first half, dominate the game."
