In his post-match interview with BT Sport, the manager said he does not have an update to give on Lukaku following the serious head injury that he sustained in the first half. The boss then revealed Zlatan Ibrahimovic is out "for one month".
"When you have Romelu we know how he plays. He creates so much space and he is a big miss for us, but we have players who can come on and give us something else to fill the gap."
"Of we wanted to win today. We have drawn at home when the game was turning in our half. We missed the final chance today, to kill it. We got a point, we didn't lose, but still we have to bounce back. We have drawn three games that we had to win. We have to change something. Something has to change."

The full-time whistle has blown and it's all over at Old Trafford, where the Reds have been held to a goalless draw by the well-organised Saints.
90 MINS + 3
Martial's cross from the left is frustratingly headed clear by substitute Gabbiadini.
90 MINS + 1
United are showing improved levels of urgency, but is it simply too late? One minute to go...
90 MINS
The ball falls kindly to Lingard inside the Southampton penalty area and he has a chance to the hero once again, but his shot is weak and is blocked by the plucky visitors. Come on United, keep going!
85 MINS
The attacking forward steps off the bench as the Saints show their ambition late on.
83 MINS
Matic's shot is poked into the back of the net by Pogba at the back post and the crowd goes wild, until the linesman's flag goes up for offside.
80 MINS
Ward-Prowse is rightly booked for a foul on Lingard, becoming the fourth Saint to enter the book.
79 MINS
Long goes off for Gabbiadini, who has not scored a goal since October - but, as you will remember, notched a brace against us in last season's EFL Cup final at Wembley Stadium.

There are just 15 minutes left to play and the Reds are pushing higher up the pitch, in search of an opening goal that would surely prove to be the winner. Ander Herrera is the only player warming up on the touchline, by the way - expect to see him soon.
