Erik ten Hag says he “doesn’t care” about Pep Guardiola’s tactical plan for the Manchester derby after the Manchester City manager suggested he has a “ridiculous” idea about how to win the game.
Guardiola has since claimed he was joking when he said he had “a few ideas, thoughts, ridiculous ones against United” but ahead of the match at Old Trafford on Saturday, Ten Hag insists he is ready for any surprises.

“I don’t care about that, what he is thinking,” said Ten Hag at a news conference on Friday.
“He did it more often and we are prepared for that, if he does different things. We have our principles, our rules of football.”
