Luke Shaw's "winning" comments speak volumes about Man Utd's progress under Erik ten Hag

Luke Shaw says Manchester United have their sights set on an historic quadruple haul of trophies.

United's dramatic derby win over neighbours Manchester City underlined their progress under Erik ten Hag and propelled them into the title race. United stunned the defending champions as they followed up a highly-contentious equaliser with a late winner to move within a point of their second-placed neighbours in the Premier League.

As well as pushing for the Premier League, United are into the fourth round of the FA Cup, semi-finals of the EFL Cup and face Barcelona in the Europa League. United have lost just once in 19 games since October 2,have won their last nine games in all competitions, with Shaw adamant they can push for glory on all four fronts.

"We're still in four competitions,” said Shaw. “We're Manchester United, we have to aim to win every competition we're in.

"Of course we want to win all four of them, but whether that happens or not is down to us, it's down to the way we act, the way we rest and get ready for the next game.

"Right now, as a team, we have to make sure we have the right consistency in performances and results.

"It's always about winning. If you play well or not, you need to be winning, and recently we've been doing that.

"Now we have to forget about this game, forget about this win, because we have a massive game on Wednesday now against Crystal Palace."

Defender Shaw hailed the atmosphere at Old Trafford for United's derby win as the best he has experienced at the club.

“I've been here a long time, I think eight years, and the atmosphere was the best I've been involved in," said Shaw.

"It shows the fans are with us, they're pushing us in the right direction and I hope they really enjoyed it.”
