"Each season we’re always going to progress. A lot of teams go through transition periods and we’ll progress for next season. We’ll pick ourselves up and go again."
"I think we have to come back stronger, stronger in the league, stronger in the FA Cup, stronger in the league cup, stronger in the Champions League, we want to be fighting on all fronts. We have the summer now to look forward to and come back and prepare in pre-season."
"It was a bit hard for us to play without Lukaku against a team that defends with nine players. You need that presence. Every defeat hurts, but I go home with the feeling we gave everything. No regrets. Chelsea are not stupid. They know our team without Lukaku or Fellaini does not have a presence so putting eight or nine players in front of the box they knew they would be dominant in that direct football. We tried everything by other ways but they had a huge block of compacted players. The image of the game is that David de Gea did not touch the ball. He touched the ball in the net." *Speaking to BBC Sport
"I am quite curious to know what you [the media] say and what people write. I'm quite curious about it because I can imagine if my team played like Chelsea did, I can imagine what everybody would say, so I'm curious. But from this moment, I am on holiday. I gave everything I could and I know the players gave absolutely everything they could." *Speaking to BBC Sport
"I congratulate them because they won, but I don't think they deserved to win. I congratulate [them] because I am a sportsman and they scored one more goal than us and they get the cup. I think I have to do what my job requires me to do - I am the Manchester United manager and I must be respectful, not just because they [Chelsea] were my previous club, but because they are the opponent that won the cup. But I think we deserved to win, we were the better team, but that's football." *Speaking to BBC Sport
Despite the obvious disappointment of the result, Jose Mourinho was quick to congratulate his opposite number Antonio Conte in the Chelsea dugout in a moment of good sportsmanship from the boss. The players also followed suit by shaking the hands of the Blues players.
The Reds are making their way up the Wembley steps to collect their runner up medals. It just wasn't meant to be for United today.

It's disappointment for Jose Mourinho who has lost his first ever domestic cup final, winning the previous five in England.
FT
Despite a totally dominant second half performance, it's Hazard's first half goal which ultimately decides the final. Alexis had a second half goal ruled out, whilst Pogba had a glorious chance to level the game up, but he headed wide and unfortunately for the Reds, it's Chelsea who leave Wembley as FA Cup winners.
