Despite securing a hard-fought point against their fierce rivals, Fernandes expressed his frustration that Manchester United cannot replicate such performances on a weekly basis.
"We've been fairly criticised because the position in the table says it all,” remarked the attacking midfielder. “We can't be happy with a draw because we need points more than they need points. I think it's a fair result, both teams played really good football.
“But we can't be satisfied. I'm really upset because if we can show this against Liverpool, why can't we do this every week?
