""You can have all the talent in the world, but you have to roll your sleeves up and when the game gets a bit tight you say you're going to do your bit for the team," he said. "There are too many players who don't do enough. Not just [Diogo] Dalot. In the last two games United have conceded six goals. What chance have you got? Newcastle are coming up in a few days, they'll come to Old Trafford and enjoy it, they'll have runners."
""These are the ugly bits of football. We know you've got the other bits, but you've got to do the ugly bits. That's what all the top teams do. But you can also dig deep, you can win by playing ugly. You have to find a way to do that. "Out of possession they're one of the worst teams in the league. With the ball they're good, but if you want to be a top footballer, it's about what you do out of possession.""
Manchester United were beaten 3-2 at Villa Park as Morgan Rogers scored twice, with Matheus Cunha briefly equalising. United fell behind after Leny Yoro failed to close down Rogers, who curled a stunner beyond Senne Lammens. Youri Tielemans turned Diogo Dalot inside out to create Rogers' second, delivering a cross that Rogers finished into the far corner. The defeat leaves United seventh in the Premier League and losing ground in the race for Champions League places. Criticism focused on United's deficient work out of possession, defensive risks and recent goal concessions. Villa earned three points that strengthen their position under Unai Emery.
