Manchester United captain Harry Maguire has stated that he takes responsibility for the goals conceded.
The England international stated that he will take responsibility for his performance and the defensive performance.
The latest defeat for Manchester United side came from rival Liverpool as Ole Gunner Solskjaer side conceded 5 goals.
“We’ve conceded far too many goals. I take a big responsibility for that,” he said. “I take responsibility for my own performance but also the defensive performance as well.
“I’m the captain, I’ve been a mainstay in the defence for over two years. We’ve had some good runs but at the minute we’re not defending well enough. My performances haven’t been good enough and I’m looking to get back to the form I’ve shown prior to the injury in the last two seasons.
“From the start of the season we’ve conceded too many chances and we’ve been punished this week with the chances in the first half. We gave them chances and they punished us. You can’t do it against these good teams and you can’t always get away with it.
Maguire further stated that they are looking to improve their performance as analysis are been done.
“If I could tell you why, we’d do something about it. We’re working on it, we’re analysing it. For sure, this week has been nowhere near good enough.
“We don’t generally look at stats. I didn’t know those stats [for tackles and duels won]. That’s something I’m sure the staff are looking at but we look at the performances and results. This past week we know we’ve conceded far too many goals and far too many chances. We know we have got to improve.”
