(Reuters) - Manchester United face a 'big, big uphill task' to finish in the Premier League's top six, manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said on Sunday after his lacklustre side lost 1-0 at Newcastle United.

Solskjaer's side had plenty of possession on Tyneside on Sunday, they were toothless with England striker Marcus Rashford barely having a sight of goal all afternoon. "It will take as long as it will take," he said when asked for a realistic time frame for the club's fortunes to revive. "We are disappointed, of course," the Norwegian said."The boys worked their socks off. But we don't create enough chances to win a game of football."Asked what was missing, the Spaniard said:"Everything. There is lots to improve. We just try to keep trying and fighting, improving every day. It's a hard moment for us."

Newcastle moved out of the bottom three and are only a point behind United. Manager Steve Bruce, a former Man Utd league winner, had never won as a manager against his old club but did so at the 23rd time of asking.
