That is a dreadful decision, no way is it a red.
Now that was a dreadful tackle.
"It was our worst ever day," Ferguson said. "It's the worst result in my history, ever. Even as a player I don't think I ever lost 6-1. That's challenge for me too."
It was Manchester United's worst home defeat since the 1930-31 season, when they were beaten 6-0 by Huddersfield Town amid a run of 12 straight losses in the First Division.
"I can't believe the scoreline. The first goal was a blow for sure but it was retrievable at 1-0. The sending off was a killer for us. We kept attacking when we went 4-1 down and we should have just said: 'We've had our day.'"
Ferguson felt the more experienced players in the team should have realised pressing for further goals was an unwise tactic.
"We just kept attacking. They were attacking three versus two. It was crazy football," he said. "I thought with the experience we've got - Rio Ferdinand, Patrice Evra - they would [defend more] but we just kept attacking. Sometimes there has to be common sense about it. It was a bad day."
He added: "What did concern me was the goals for and against. Goal difference may count. Last year it was in our favour. Most years it is in our favour. This time maybe not."
Despite his immense disappointment, Ferguson feels that the severity of the defeat could prove positive as the club will feel a strong determination to make amends.
"We'll come back. By January we'll be okay. We usually get the show on the road in the second half of the season and that will have to be the case," he added. "We've played all the teams around us and they have all to play each other so the second half of the season is important to us now.
"We will react, no question about that. It's a perfect result for us to react to because there is a lot of embarrassment in the dressing room and that will make an impact."
The scale of the defeat did concern Ferguson, though, as he looked ahead to the potential importance of goal difference as the season progresses.

PFA backs Tevez over City fine![]()
Without the union's sanction the punishment cannot be implemented. A two-week fine is the maximum which can be imposed without a club seeking permission from the PFA. It throws City's punishment for Tevez up in the air.
PFA chief Gordon Taylor has issued a statement that insists Tevez has been cleared of the accusation that he refused to come of the bench for Manchester City in the Champions League at Bayern Munich, and as such should not incur an additional two-week fine.
Taylor said: "If he had refused to play that would have been the charge and that would be gross misconduct. The charge was momentarily refusing to resume warming up. He never refused to play. He was desperate to play.
"They are trying to portray he refused to play, which is serious and why he was vilified. No evidence that they presented suggested that. If the evidence was strong and irrefutable, that's gross misconduct, as serious as it gets and could be a termination of contract.
"That's not the case. The evidence doesn't suggest that and that's why the charge was not of gross misconduct.''
Chelsea/Arsenal
