Erik ten Hag's side get battered and humiliated 3-0 at home to Bournemouth
From bad to worse and further down the road. Another loss, another humiliation for Manchester United.
The Red Devils lost 3-0 to Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Saturday night in a one-sided game which saw awful United again this season.
Erik ten Hag's slot seemed pale, out of balance and any kind of attacking idea that could actually hurt their stubborn opponents.
YOU CAN SEE SOLANKE'S GOAL HERE
On the other hand, the Cherries were eager to make an upset straight from the start, with Solanke finding the back of Onana's net only five minutes into the match. He used his instep to direct a superb low finish past Onana for 0-1.
It could have easily been 0-2 thanks to the same player some half an hour later, as Solanke got himself a lovely through ball. His diagonal effort beat Onana but came back off the upright.

However, no one could save the home team from the disaster in the second half, with the visitors killing the fixture superbly with two goals in the span of just five minutes.
Firstly, Billing pounced on a useful cross from a counter in the 68th minute to double the lead. Senesi finally put the cherry on the top with a header following a corner from the right.

To make things worse, Manchester United are facing Bayern Munich (who also got battered this Saturday in the Bundesliga) on Tuesday night in the Champions League do-or-die tie, which could cause more trauma for their fans.
Retweet this so we can all laugh at them together.
