I saw what Ruben Amorim told Altay Bayindir to do and he failed to do it for Manchester United

The goalkeeping situation at Manchester United is like a tagline from a blockbuster: whoever wins, they lose.

Lyon felt like a defeat, given the manner of Andre Onana's 95th-minute error. Three days later, Newcastle inflicted the heaviest loss on United this season with Altay Bayindir between the sticks.

Bayindir gifted Newcastle a fourth goal with a feeble kick that Joelinton nudged forward for Bruno Guimaraes. Bayindir's kicking was an issue from kick-off, when United were ordered to play the ball back to him. Bayindir floated the ball into Newcastle's third and to Fabian Schar.

Ruben Amorim had to instruct Bayindir where to place another kick. Narrowing his hands together, Amorim seemingly signalled for the Turk to punt the ball down the middle.

Bayindir's kicking was so appalling in the FA Cup tie at Arsenal he kept finding touch. Going down the middle at least kept the ball in play. But for Newcastle.

United were incapable of emerging from their own third with the ball once Newcastle started to press intensely. Joshua Zirkzee was advised to withdraw, so he had more room to gather any long balls.

Opta say Bayindir attempted 57 passes and completed only 27. United signed Bayindir as a back-up goalie for £4.3million from Fenerbahce. What you see is what you get.

United are unlikely to deviate from their plan to recall Onana against Lyon on Thursday. The notion of rotating goalies may also go out the window. Newcastle was the first game out of 102 that Onana was omitted from the squad and it was on borderline compassionate grounds.

Bayindir performed in the third round at Arsenal, his performance defined by two penalty saves in normal time and the shootout. That is something for Amorim to consider for midweek if
