Speaking after the match, MU coach Ten Hag told Sky Sports: “We know it’s not good enough. We are responsible for that. I am responsible for that. I feel sorry for the fans. It’s below our standards and we have to get it right.

We had to recover from that game and we had to do it quickly. Saturday is the next game (against Fulham) and we have to raise our standards. This is not enough.”

However, things could get worse for the Dutch strategist. Ten Hag is under a lot of pressure when 5 of MU’s next 6 matches in all competitions will take place away from home.

MU will face Fulham on Saturday, before a trip to Denmark to play Copenhagen in the Champions League. Next, MU will have a trip to Luton on November 11 (UK time), followed by away matches against Everton, Galatasaray and Newcastle.

Erik Ten Hag continued: “We have enough quality, the players will stand up. They stick together. You saw they tried but we know this is not good enough, I’m responsible for this and we have to do this together.

To gain confidence, you must first compete and you will gain confidence when you get the right result. That is only possible when you follow the rules, principles, win the bаttle and figҺt.

You have to do this as a team. The only way is to stick together, but you have to be disciplined, everyone has to cooperate and take responsibility. We’re still sleeping on this, then there’s team selection and tactics. The most important thing is to have the right mentality.”
