JAKARTA - Manchester United players must question whether they are good enough to be at the club following the defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final, Thursday, May 22, 2025, early morning WIB.
This season has been sad for Manchester United, especially in the Premier League, exacerbated by a 0-1 defeat to Spurs.
The result means there won't be any European football games at Old Trafford next season for the second time in 35 years.
One of the Red Devils players, Luke Shaw, said there must have been major changes during the summer and hinted some players had to leave.
"It's hard to reveal this season with words, but I think for a club like Manchester United, it's not good enough."

"I think it's true. I think we all have to question ourselves tonight."
"Are we good enough to be here? You see, this club, this season, is unacceptable. We know that and it depends on us."
"I think this is very difficult to accept. I think we have to look at ourselves. Something has to change," Shaw said.
In an emotional interview at the Estadio de San Mames, Shaw said the defeat to Tottenham was destructive.
He apologized to supporters who have remained in support of the team through their worst season since relegation to the second division in 1974.
"I think everyone knows how big this game is. It's very detrimental. We have to get up and accept criticism."
"As I said, we as players, this isn't good enough for a club like Manchester United."
"We take full responsibility, but I just want to apologize to them for the trip this season," Shaw said.
Despite calling for change during the summer, Shaw insisted that head coach Ruben Amorized must remain responsible.
The Portuguese coach offered to leave without compensation after losing to Spurs.
However, Shaw insisted that the 40-year-old coach remained the right person for the job.
"I think there are a lot of things that need to change. I think that's why Ruben is 100 percent the right person."
"He knows and can see day after day at the club, not only on the pitch, but also off the pitch, around the club."
"Standar, mindset, I think he saw everything. I think he knows what he needs to change," said the left-back.
