Cristiano Ronaldo's late effort was one of just four shots Manchester United managed on target at Everton

If Manchester United perform like they did againstEverton in the rest of the season, they won't deserve to play in the playoffs.

It has hurt United's chances of finishing in the top four.

If we play like we did here, we don't deserve it.

The players should be eager to play international football. You have to be able to score in 95 minutes in order to qualify for Europe.

Following a disappointing defeat by their rivals,Everton came into the match.

He believed that the team was low in confidence after the loss to Burnley.

He said that if you don't score against a team that conceded three goals, you cannot expect to get anything out of it.

We were in complete control of the game for the first 25 minutes. We did not take enough advantage out of that dominating period.

You could feel the crumbling of the team after that result. They were not full of confidence but we didn't take advantage of that.

At the end of the season, United will have a new manager, and they are close to appointing ten Hag.

The uncertainty over the managerial situation was not an excuse for their lackluster performances, as they have taken several months over the recruitment process.

The lowest win percentage for any manager in the competition has been achieved by United, who have won just eight of 17 games.

We are Manchester United. There are a lot of international players. There shouldn't be an alibi.

There will be a new manager next season. If this is announced in the next 10 days, it shouldn't have an impact.

'We are not good enough'

Following the defeat, David de Gea said that Manchester United are not good enough.

In the past five games, United have lost once and are now adrift of the top four.

We are not good enough. It is going to be difficult to be in the top four.

We don't score, we don't even create proper chances to score.

The Spain keeper criticized the lack of hunger to fight for the points and contrasted it with the tenacious display of the other team.

We knew before today that it was going to be difficult for them, but they kept going and kept fighting.

They had more desire than we did. It is very sad to lose today.
