Manchester United defender Luke Shaw has revealed that the club will hold "a big debrief" on Monday to dissect what happened at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils conceded seven unanswered goals to Liverpool in the shock result, which was a huge setback for the club following a period of progress.
Shaw has now offered his reaction to the 7-0 loss in the Premier League, with the defender claiming that his side "showed no personality and no mentality" in the humiliation.
"Out there on the pitch, I felt embarrassed for us players, for the fans who were supporting us and who were watching at home," he told MUTV.
"To watch that second half... I can only apologise for that, us, as players, have to own it, we have to stand up and accept that it was nowhere near good enough.
"It was completely unacceptable. Our standards have clearly dropped since we won that trophy [Carabao Cup] and, in the last couple of games, we haven't been our normal selves – we need to find the good things we were doing before and bring them back, because this hurts a lot and it's really unacceptable what we did in that second half.
"We showed no personality and no mentality. For a big team to come here, we need to do better.
"We need to realise that [it won't define our campaign], that's what we're having, a big debrief tomorrow [Monday] about the game, about what went wrong.
"We need to keep the belief, keep the character and bring back the personality and mentality, that we know we have, but we lost today.
"We can't let one result derail our whole season because I think we're in a really good place and I think this is another hurdle that we need to go over and us, as a team, we'll climb over that and I think we'll bounce back positively on Thursday night [against Real Betis]. I'm sure of that."
Shaw also sent a message to the Man United supporters following the defeat at Anfield.
"Coming into this game, we spoke about how much it means to them and how much it means to us; I can only apologise on behalf of myself and the team for the way we performed in that second half, the mistakes we made," he added.
"The performance was a disgrace, I was on the pitch and I felt that, I felt embarrassed for the fans that were in the stands to be witnessing that.
"Starting now, we need to make amends starting with the game on Thursday – hopefully, they will be there to support us and we'll give everything in that game."
Man United will be back at Old Trafford on Thursday evening for the first leg of their Europa League last-16 contest with Real Betis, before Southampton head to Manchester in the league on Sunday. body check tags ::
