Premier League: A new low for Manchester United

-

Brentford 4 - 0 Manchester United

Was this a new for Manchester United?

(Warning- the video below contains some strong language)

It is the first time United have started a league campaign with consecutive losses since the 1992-93 season.

Brentford produced a sensational first-half performance as they scored four goals in the first 35 minutes to condemn Manchester United to a terrible defeat.

Josh Dasilva put the hosts ahead when his strike from distance somehow eluded United goalkeeper David de Gea.

Mathias Jensen doubled the lead after dispossessing former Brentford player Christian Eriksen, with Ben Mee and Bryan Mbeumo goals putting Thomas Frank's side four up during an incredible first half in which they stunningly dismantled United.

The defeat is United's seventh in a row on the road. This is their worst run since 1936, while it is the seventh time they have conceded at least four goals in a league game since the start of last season.

Highlights and reaction

One United fan commented on the above video: "Well done Brentford, from a United fan. We were shocking, pathetic and disgraceful. You humiliated us, and we deserved it. Hopefully, you've taught our overpaid prima-donnas that they have to run and fight to win at football. They've done nothing but pick paint colours for their Lamborghini's."

Another United fan told us: "As a Manchester United fan, congrats to Brentford for a cracking performance. No complaints on the result. It's not the losing that hurts for us, happy to lose to a better team on the day and hold our hands up."

Brentford manager Thomas Frank, told BBC Match of the Day: "I was very pleased, very proud of the performance. To beat Manchester United 4-0 - biggest club in the world, world-class players - makes some remarkable memories for the Brentford fans here. It's crazy. In some way unreal.

FA Cup: United win on penalties

 Manchester United 3 - 3 Coventry City Manchester United won 4-2 on penalties  United somehow progressed to the FA Cup final for the second successive season, following a dramatic semi-final victory over Coventry City. The Reds edged past the Sky Blues on penalties after a crazy and eventful 120 minutes to set up a rematch of last year's final, against Manchester City. Following goals from Scott McTominay, Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes, United appeared to be in total and complete control. Despite having a few chances, it did look like this was one match too far for Coventry. However, goals Ellis Simms and O'Hare reduced the deficit and made things very nervy for Ten Hag's side. Then in stoppage time, Haji Wright kept his nerve in stoppage time to score from the spot and send the game into extra time. Many Manchester United fans were furious at this point.  Disgraceful performance from #mufc https://t.co/sibOvrXJB0 pic.twitter.com/dPV06sMrkJ — Jay Dee (@JDESFNews)

Manchester United 1 - 1 Burnley Zeki Amdouni scored a late penalty to grab what could he a priceless point for relegation-threatened Burnley in the Premier League at Old Trafford. Despite another unconvincing display from Manchester United, they did look well set for victory thanks to Antony's well-taken 79th-minute effort. Then Burnley got a penalty  Although the referee John Brooks managed to miss the foul in real time, unlike against Wolves the video assistant referee, Peter Bankes, stepped in. Substitute Amdouni managed to send the keeper the wrong way and earn Burnley this point  This result moved Burnley to within two points of fourth-bottom Nottingham Forest, whom they play at Turf Moor on the final day of the season.  There could still be a dramatic fight for survival with Burnley, Luton and Forest all scrambling to avoid relegation to the Championship.  You can watch the highlights of the match in the video below.
