Man Utd keeper De Gea: We weren't sharper enough in front of Chelsea goal

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea admits they lacked a cutting edge for yesterday's 0-0 draw with Chelsea.

De Gea insists they have to win these types of games if they want to get back to winning silverware.

And he felt as if their attack wasn't quite clicking in west London.

“I think it was [the right result], we didn't have many chances, we didn't create much," he told MUTV.

"I think both teams defended really well, there weren't many chances, the draw was fine, but if we want to win trophies we have to beat these teams.

“The last pass was what we missed today, we created good counter-attacks but the last pass wasn't the best position.

"At least we defended really well, the team was strong today, we gave everything and it wasn't enough."
