Defensive errors put trepidation throughout the whole team. "You lose that confidence and belief - and it's destroying the spirit of the team."United's disastrous start to the 2018-19 campaign sees them sit 13th in the table after three games, six points behind current leaders Liverpool.</blockquote>
