In what was an extremely disappointing display across the 90 minutes, the Reds were also reduced to 10 men as Paul Pogba was shown a straight red card following a challenge with Liverpool midfielder, Naby Keita.
Speaking to MUTV's Stewart Gardner following the defeat, the United skipper began: ‘’First and foremost, apologies to the fans, we need to be better and it’s not good enough.
‘’They deserve more and when we’re coming off the pitch 5-0 down against our rivals, with the Stretford End still singing, we obviously appreciate that but, deep down within ourselves, we know we’ve got to do much more,’’ added the United defender.
