In the end, maybe Gary Neville summed it up best. Manchester United, he said, were like a drunk at the bar trying to settle a score, blindly flailing round and throwing punches that would never land on their intended target.
It’s hard to know quite how long Manchester United’s board will let this show run. It wasn’t quite the 5-0 humiliation of Liverpool two weeks ago. It was every bit as one sided though. There was a poignant cameo on 25 minutes in this game, when Manchester United crossed the half way line for the second time.
Luke Shaw delivered a decent cross and Cristiano Ronaldo connected well, forcing a fine save from Ederson.
