Bottom of the Premier League table, yet to score a goal via one of their own players and ready to sell one of their most exciting prospects.

To say all is not rosy in Manchester United's garden is something of an understatement. Saturday's humiliating 4-0 defeat to Brentford at the Gtech Comminity Stadium has left supporters raging and manager Erik ten Hag scathing with his players, as highlighted by his decision to put them through a gruelling, sun-drenched training session on what was supposed to be their day off on Sunday.

United, just as they were against Brighton & Hove Albion on the opening day of the season, were second best in the capital, resulting in them not only being beaten but destroyed by a club that was playing in League One the last time the Premier League trophy was delivered to Old Trafford.

Brentford steamrolled Ten Hag's side in the space of just 35 minutes, racing into a commanding 4-0 lead before the half-time pie rush had even started.
