Ronald Koeman felt his Southampton side were not beaten by Manchester United yet lost the game themselves.
The Saints were beaten 3-2 at St Mary's on Sunday despite taking a 13th-minute lead through Graziano Pelle, to see Anthony Martial score twice and Juan Mata once, before Pelle pulled one back late.
After the match, Koeman spoke of his side's offensive effort while indicating that Louis van Gaal's United struggled defensively.
"I don't talk about Man United, I talk about ourselves," said a bullish Koeman.
"We showed at different moments our strengths and maybe it is depending on the weaknesses of them but we showed our quality offensively.
"I'm disappointed because in my opinion we lost by ourselves. We did a lot of good things. There were several moments in the game where you put the pressure on them. We saw the weaknesses of Manchester United today, defensively."
