Manchester United defender Axel Tuanzebe believes the international break has come at the right time for his side.
The youngster was in the team for their 1-0 loss away to Newcastle on Sunday in the Premier League.
It is a result that puts United only two points above the relegation places.
Now the players go away with their countries, before coming back for a huge league clash against Liverpool at home in two weeks.
"Yeah, you can see we shut them out for a long period of time, Tuanzebe told MUTV after the game.
"The only way they were able to score was a counter when we weren't really there. The goal, it is what it is: a 20-yard shot, it wasn't like they played through us or anything like that.
"We go back to the drawing board, the international break [is] now time for us to regroup. We believe in what we're doing, in time it will come.
"Now it's just that tough phase. Next game we look forward to is Liverpool. [We] definitely want to get a result in that game."
