Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has hit out at their defending after their 5-0 thrashing by Liverpool.

United are seventh in the top flight and have conceded a staggering 15 goals in nine league matches.

Goalkeeper De Gea insists this is just "not good enough" and that the team has been defending "like kids".

The Spain international added that they need to apologise to the fans for "conceding s**t goals".

De Gea said in an explosive interview: "It is difficult to describe what I feel now. It hurts. It is not good enough.

"We keep on conceding s**t goals like we have been doing all season.

"We play like kids and I have to apologise to the fans."
