Manchester United manager David Moyes admitted it is "tough" at Old Trafford as he endures a difficult start to life with the club.
.
The Premier League champions sit ninth in the table after 15 games and a massive 13 points off leaders Arsenal after back-to-back defeats at home to Everton and Newcastle in the space of four days.
.
United face Shakhtar Donetsk in their final Champions League group game on Tuesday, the competition where Moyes has enjoyed some success with their progression to the last-16 already ensured.
.
But he revealed he is taking full responsibility for their poor start in the Premier League in their first season since Alex Ferguson retired.
.
"We've been inconsistent at times but played well in some of the Champions League, not so well in the Premier League," he said.
.
"We've maybe lacked a bit of fortune in some of the games.
.
"It's tough because the expectancy is to win all the games.
.
"I think there's a bit of everything we can improve - generally play better, pass better, defend better.
.
"It is not any one thing. It is all round we have to improve. It was only recent when we had beaten Arsenal here and then Leverkusen (that) we were speaking very well about the team.
A good result yesternite in that Champions League so let's hope the players will replicate this in the EPL
