Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic has revealed the players have held crisis talks.

United were dismal in defeat at West Ham on Saturday, falling to a 3-1 defeat.

“I don't think with talking you can resolve something. The leaders need to be on the pitch. The leaders are the player who are not scared to play," he said, ahead of Tuesday's Champions League match against Spanish visitors Valencia.

“We will see tomorrow and in the next games who are the leaders. For me, if you talk in the dressing room that doesn't mean anything. Sometimes it can help but the most important is on the pitch.

“Pressure is always there. All my life I play with pressure, also my teammates. We are not scared to play. Everyone is trying to win. Everyone has a big motivation to win against Manchester United.

“We know that and we have to be ready but we were not ready in the last few games. Everyone want to fight against us but we are not scared to play and I'm sure we will show that in the next few games."
