As another defeat passes by with hardly a whimper from Manchester United, the clamour for a new manager grows further still.
A 25-minute spell of defiance aside, United were meek and gutless as they were destroyed by their neighbours in what should have been a fierce Manchester derby but instead ended up looking more like a lads vs dads lark down the park. The second-half display was a new nadir as United managed to fall to even lower depths with the efficiency of a sinking ship.
United were humbled, schooled and once again put in their place and instead of showing any sign of fight they simply gave up. Not to go all Roy Keane, but to only commit eight fouls in a half in which you have just 21 per cent possession, in a derby no less, is pathetic. They couldn't even get close enough to trip someone up, let alone win the ball.
