United crashed out of the Champions League last night following a shock 2-1 defeat to FC Basel.
“We’re in the Europa League now and I’ve always said that whatever competition we’re in we don’t enter it to come second or to get knocked out in the early stages,” the England international told MUTV.
“We’re always in it to win it and this is no different.”
“Nights at Old Trafford, under the lights, the Champions League music, that’s what you live for,” he added.
“We’ve gone out early this year and we’re disappointed. But we can’t blame anyone else but ourselves.
“The lads are all devastated to have gone out at this stage of the tournament. But that’s the reality. That’s what’s happened.
“We have to look back at the games at Old Trafford. We’ve not done enough to win those games.
“The manager’s always said that if you don’t win your home games, you don’t deserve to go through. That’s the case this season.”
