Manchester United's pitiful performance in the recent Manchester Derby against Manchester City highlights how far they have fallen behind their rivals. Since Pep Guardiola joined Manchester City, United have picked up 145 fewer points in the Premier League. The 3-0 defeat raises further questions about United's footballing identity this season under manager Erik ten Hag. The team's directionless play and lack of success despite significant spending have put pressure on ten Hag. United's poor start to the season is their worst in over 30 years.

Erik ten Hag has made 16 signings and spent around £400m. Manchester United had have too little benefit this season. The danger for Ten Hag is that his biggest and worst buy becomes the face of a spending spree: https://t.co/mhfFSNVTtW
