Newcastle 2-1 Man Utd: What Carrick and Lammens said

Michael Carrick spoke to TNT Sports afte Manchester United's defeat against Newcastle: "We are not happy the way we played tonight. The way the game panned out we had it in our hands largely but credit to Newcastle and they way they approached it, we knew it would be tough but we navigated the game to a position where we could kick on but we didn't. Bitterly disappointed really.

"I don't think it was the 10 men, we just didn't play good enough. We can't make excuses for that. We all take responsibility for that.

"It was just the quality of the performance, it wasn't character or wanting to win, it's easy to throw that just because you don't win a game of football

"Newcastle deserved to win tonight, it hurts me to say that. That is how it was. We need to get back to work and be better for the next game.

"We've lost one game, we haven't played well enough but in the grand scheme of things we are in a decent position. Tonight hurts but we will be better for the next one.

"You have to get back at it, work hard and do the things we did to win the games we've won. We can do that, we are a good team, tonight wasn't for us.

"We have to learn from it and get better for it. We had a lot of praise lately and the boys deserve it, this doesn't change how we approach the next game. We've got everything to play for."

Senne Lammens added: "That is always a bad feeling to lose, just in general today was not our day. It was nowhere near good enough.

"We scored our goal just before half-time and it was really important to give us a good feeling going into half time.

"When we step out on the pitch for the second half it needs to be better, I think our mentality needs to be better. In every aspect it was not our game today.

"I'm not sure what we were lacking. Every team has those games, but you can't put it like that you always have to perform, especially here.

"Heading into half-time we had a pretty good feeling because we scored and playing against 10 men you want to finish it off, we couldn't get our rhythm going and we need to learn a lot from this."
