Manchester United boss David Moyes reportedly held crisis talks with his squad on Monday morning after their 3-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday.

The loss at Old Trafford was United's ninth of a disastrous season, and the result leaves them in seventh place, some 18 points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea.

Moyes is said to have grouped his squad together with his backroom staff in an attempt to get some frank assessments as to where they have gone wrong this season, according to Goal.com.

A recent report also claimed that a senior member of the United team fell out with Moyes in a behind-the-scenes 'bust up'.
