Manchester United's poor start to the season can be attributed to a lack of consistency throughout the 90 minutes in games with players' concentration levels dropping at the wrong moments, manager Erik ten Hag said Friday.
United have had their worst start to a Premier League season to sit 10th after seven games with three wins and four defeats.
They have also lost three of their last four home games at Old Trafford in all competitions, which include a 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace last weekend and a 3-2 defeat by Galatasaray Tuesday.
"Consistency, that is the problem we are struggling with. In parts of the games, in big parts, we do a lot of things right, but we have moments where we struggle and in such moments we can't survive," Ten Hag told reporters.
"We need to do the right things, be consistent and do it like before, so definitely you can mark such a moment like when we score or concede a goal. We have to step up.
"We've spoken about it, how we can improve and we make some agreements about that. I think it's more than one factor, concentration is one, but there's other things."
Ten Hag said Antony is "ready to start" for the first time since he returned to the squad following police investigations into assault allegations made by his former girlfriend.
The 23-year old came on as a substitute against Galatasaray.
Jadon Sancho remains unavailable as the forward remains exiled from the first-team over a disciplinary issue while Sergio Reguilon is out injured.
