Manchester United midfielder Mason Mount says "it's a difficult time" but they "have to front it" and come back stronger after the international break.

Speaking to BBC Radio Manchester following Sunday's 4-4 draw with Aston Villa, Mount said: "It was a chaotic finish to the game and we managed to pull ourselves out of it to get a point.

"The start of the game wasn't good enough and we let ourselves down, and then the same at the start of the second half. After that, I think we looked good and we created chances.

"It shows character and desire to get back into it, but it's not where we want to be.

"We want to be winning games, especially at home in front of our fans, so it's a tough one to sum up."

United sit in 18th place in the Premier League, which is their lowest position for 40 years after playing at least 10 matches.

As they enter the international break, they will spend more time in the relegation zone than they have done since 1986.

"It's about sticking together in this moment and keep going as we have big games coming up after the [international] break," added Mount. "It's a difficult time, but as players we have to front it and show what we are about after the break.

"We want to get ourselves out of this position so we have to show that."
