Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has bemoaned his team-mates for 'playing like kids' amid a disastrous run of form. United's season hit a new low on Sunday as Liverpool secured a historic 5-0 win at Old Trafford - inflicting a third defeat in four Premier League games on their rivals.

The vast majority of the United squad have been silent on social media since the defeat, but Cristiano Ronaldo joined De Gea in posting a message.
He wrote on Instagram: "Sometimes the result is not the one we fight for.
"Sometimes, the score is not the one we want. And this is on us, only on us, because there's no one else to blame.
"Our fans were, once again, amazing in their constant support. They deserve better than this, much better, and it's up to us to deliver. The time is now!"

And things won't get any easier for United as they bid to end their disastrous run of form, with Tottenham Hotspur, Atalanta and Manchester City next on the fixture list.
