Louis van Gaal accused his Manchester United players of being out-fought in a 3-0 defeat at Everton on Sunday that left the Premier League top-four door slightly ajar for Liverpool.
Victory at Goodison Park would have all but guaranteed a return to the Champions League for United after this season's absence from Europe but they were picked off by a clinical Everton side despite hogging possession.
"This was the first match when I saw a team that was more motivated and aggressive than us. It is not good, but we are human beings.
"Everton deserved to win. When the result is fair, you can live with it."
