It was a defeat that put the final nail in Erik ten Hag’s coffin at Old Trafford, with the former Ajax boss now a dead man walking at the club following a shambolic few minutes in which his side went from 3-2 up to 4-3 behind.

But Ten Hag was not the only victim from that incredible loss; it was a game that showed that Casemiro is also past his best and needs to move on.

Equally, he has been told that Marcus Rashford needs a “kick up the a**e” after failing to impress off the bench.

It was a display that even left darts star Luke Littler furious.
