    United suffered their 13th Premier League defeat of the season on Tuesday, losing 1-0 to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. Former United academy player Anthony Elanga netted the only goal, condemning his former club to another frustrating night.

    Despite dominating possession and registering 23 shots, United failed to find the net. The loss leaves them in 13th place with just eight matches remaining.

    Another defeat would see them equal their record for most losses in a Premier League season, set last year under Erik ten Hag.

    "(Our fighting spirit) shows how much we wanted and shows how much we want to change the situation, to not be in the position that we are, especially in the Premier League," Dalot told MUTV.

    "And if we want to be competitive in the future, we have to start behaving like this and we have to perform like this.

    "Then I think the results will come in the end, but this little bit will have to come first if you want to compete for the Premier League and the biggest titles."

    He added: "We still have to suffer a little bit, but in terms of trying to get out of this situation and trying to improve I think we are on the right track."
