Manchester United must 'go back to the drawing board' and work out how to 'penetrate in the final third' ahead of their clash against Liverpool in the Premier League, according to Axel Tuanzebe.
United slipped to their third league defeat of the season against Newcastle on Sunday and up next for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side is a home clash against league leaders Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp's side are unbeaten in the league this season while United have only won twice and have failed to score more than one goal in a game since the opening day of the season when they beat Chelsea 4-0 and Tuanzebe, who was United's best performer at St James' Park, said United need to work on converting their chances during the international break.
"You can see we shut them out for a long period of time," Tuanzebe told MUTV. "The only way they were able to score was a counter when we weren't really there. The goal, it is what it is: a 20-yard shot, it wasn’t like they played through us or anything like that.
"We go back to the drawing board, the international break [is] now time for us to regroup. We believe in what we’re doing, in time it will come.
"Now it’s just that tough phase. Next game we look forward to is Liverpool. [We] definitely want to get a result in that game.
"Obviously, we're waiting for players to come back [from injury] and that will be a positive to strengthen the squad again," added the 21-year-old.
"[It] gives us time to reflect and build on our game because again we’re having a lot of possession but we need to have that final kind of penetration in the final third [to] give us chances to win games."
