Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has said that goalkeeper Sergio Romero is not to blame for the defeat to Swansea City.
The Red Devils saw their unbeaten start to the Premier League season come to an end with the 2-1 reversal at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday.
Romero has been blamed by some observers for the goals that United conceded, but Van Gaal has insisted that the team must take responsibility.
When asked about the Argentine's performance, Van Gaal told ITV Sport: "You can write everything you want. What I always say is defending starts in front and not only in the last line.
"You can always analyse errors but I don't think that is a good way. You have to see the way the team is defending as a team and then I know what errors has been made.
"At the end, of course, the pressure for the last defender or goalkeeper is always higher. I don't agree when you only say the goalkeeper was not so good."
United return to Premier League action when they host Liverpool on September 12.
