Manchester United caretaker manager Darren Fletcher has urged his players to show character and respond after their FA Cup journey came to an abrupt end on Sunday evening, Softfootball reports.
United were knocked out in the third round following a 2-0 defeat to Brighton, a result that compounded a difficult period for the club after Ruben Amorim parted ways with the hierarchy earlier this year, leaving Fletcher in interim charge .
The former midfielder admitted the setback was a tough one to take, pointing to a lack of tempo and conviction in key moments, while also acknowledging the fragile state of his squad as they look to rebuild confidence and momentum.
