Evra was left frustrated at the manner of United's first defeat in 12 games in all competitions. Goals from a fit-again Fernando Torres and substitute David Ngog in the second half ended a run of four losses for Liverpool.
"But we did not show the Manchester United spirit. The advice was to play our football but we did not do that and I do not know why.
"Liverpool were aggressive but we did not play and that is why it is so frustrating to lose.
"Normally we create at least five or six clear chances in a game but we only had the one when Valencia hit the bar. It is not enough if you want to win against Liverpool."
Evra revealed there was little discussion among the players about the defeat after the game. He said: "Losing to Liverpool is the most pain you can have when you play for United. There was a big silence in the dressing room and we will need a few days to recover from this."
