EPL: Man Utd players hold meeting after 2-0 defeat at Newcastle

Luke Shaw, Manchester United’s left-back, has revealed that the squad held a clear-the-air meeting following their 2-0 defeat at Newcastle United on Sunday.

Joe Willock and Callum Wilson scored for the Magpies in their historic victory at St James’ Park.

As a result, Newcastle has surpassed Manchester United to take third place.

Shaw has now admitted that his teammates’ performance was inadequate.

“The players had a chat in the changing room after with no staff around because ultimately it’s down to us players on the pitch.

“It was nowhere near good enough and we had to speak and own up to it. When we go out on that pitch we all need to fight for each other and sometimes this season it hasn’t been like that,” Shaw said.
