"Most of the players at Manchester United are young... We are here to learn so it is important to listen to the coach's advice and also the critics," Bailly told British media.
"Every player should receive some criticism because we are not perfect. So we have to accept the criticism from the coach and we have to keep on working because the most important thing is to work and improve and gather experience."
Bailly is one of six United players aged 24 or younger that have 10 or more league appearances this season with several other youngsters in the squad yet to play.
