Manchester United endured a humiliating 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Sunday, adding to their growing list of problems this season.
The loss, their third in the league this season, saw them fall to 12th place in the standings. Tottenham, on the other hand, climbed to eighth place after their fourth consecutive victory across all competitions.
Goals from Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke sealed the victory for Tottenham, leaving United’s manager Erik ten Hag with a lot to ponder. The team’s performance was particularly concerning, as they struggled to create meaningful chances throughout the match.
Adding to the misery, captain Bruno Fernandes was sent off in the second half, further highlighting the team’s lack of control and discipline.
With just one win in their last five league games, Manchester United find themselves in a precarious position. The team’s struggles have raised questions about their ability to challenge for top honors this season.
Tottenham, on the other hand, is enjoying a resurgence under their new manager, and their recent performances suggest they could be a force to be reckoned with in the Premier League this year.
