'We have to be better than that'published at 18:55 BST 18 October
FT: Leeds 1-1 Man Utd
Manchester United defender Harry Maguire speaking to Sky Sports: "You can't question the togetherness, spirit and fight. It's a tough place to come, Leeds have been flying in the league. But we have to be better than that, we have to show a bit more quality with the ball and when you come to places like this you can't get beat on set plays and that's what we've done and it's got them back in the game. We felt comfortable in our shape and they didn't really create too many chances so then to concede a set play just after half time it's disappointing. It changed the game and we had to reset. We had to dig in, there were 15 minutes where the crowd was up. We got our foot back in the game after 65-70 minutes and probably looked like the more likely to go on and win it but a draw is probably a fair result."
On shape: "We worked on it this week. We wanted to match them up with the shape and be aggressive. We knew we could get joy playing through the middle with them only paying two and I feel like that's the area of the game where we could've done more, been a bit more brave and took the ball a bit more under pressure. We're in a situation where we're not as brave as we should be. We need to get that back because to win football matches for Manchester United you have to have an element of bravery."
On Lisandro Martinez injury: "He went off with a knock, fingers crossed nothing serious. It's a game of moments and goals change games. The shape was good first half and we come out second half and concede a set play. When you come away to these type of places you can't get beat on a set play, we did it against Hull in the first game and here today so it's disappointing. It wasn't like they were cutting us open and creating loads of chances. We showed great spirit after we weathered the storm. We're disappointed and we know that this season we haven't done that enough."
Team low on confidence? "The confidence in the team has maybe took a bit of a hit, you have to dig in. Spirit, togetherness and hard work will get you through games but you have to show a bit of quality and composure too. It grew in the game but their goal knocked our confidence. It will come. I have belief in this group we can do that.
"It's [belief] tested all the time when you play for this club. We haven't played well enough to win football matches this season. The boys have to finds something within themselves to help the team and help the group."
On Lisandro Martinez: "There has been a lot of noise around the club this week. Lisandro has apologised and we have moved on from it. I thought he was brilliant today so credit to him and let's hope it's not a serious injury."
