Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag refused to blame individuals after their Champions League 3-3 draw at Galatasaray.
Ten Hag was speaking with United legend Peter Schmeichel post-match, but disagreed with the Dane on turning on his players.
"I'm disappointed," Ten Hag began. "We did many things very good but if you are twice leading 2-0 and 3-1, you have to defend better.
"And it was poor defending as a team so we should have done that better."
Schmeichel responded: "You say poor defending as a team? I actually have the impression the defence worked well today and defended well but it was mistakes by individuals.
"Are you worried you don't have the right kind of players to take the team to where you want to be?"
Ten Hag replied: "No. We are in a project and so we have to learn from this and take it from here.
"It's all very positive how we can play and perform and to which levels we can achieve but football is a game of mistakes and details make a difference.
"We made some mistakes as a team and we got punished for it."
