“We were an embarrassment today. The red card shouldn’t be an excuse for anybody at Man United now. It shouldn’t be an excuse for anyone at the football club.
“We were terrible. We were terrible to watch. It was a terrible kind of representation of who we are and what we are right now.
“Giving the ball away, constantly. I’m ranting here, but I can’t assist it. I sat there and watched the game and impartial thought, what the hell are we?”
