Scott McTominay reacts to Man Utd v Tottenham Hotspur Premier League 4 Oct 2020

And yet you couldn’t have made a better start, with the penalty after 30 seconds?
“Yeah, that’s football again. You get these shock results that come around, hopefully never again in your career. Everybody in that dressing room I can assure you is very, very hurt and we know it’s not about speaking to people and listening to what other people say. It’s about focusing on ourselves. This football club is absolutely massive and for us to play and perform like that is nowhere near good enough. Believe me something will be done about that when we get back. Everyone will be firmly focused on what we have to do going into the remaining part of the first stage of the season.”

Does that mean on the training ground, can it be sorted out, if you like?
“We have to be so dialled into everything we do. The Premier League is so strong now, you see that, and for us, a result like that it hurts massively. That’s the first time I’ve been on the end of a result like that and believe me, inside, it’s the worst feeling I’ve ever had. That’s football. You have to accept it, you have to move on, keep your chest up and don’t duck out the way of responsibility on the pitch. You have to take the responsibility front on and try and move forward.”
