Eric Bailly's ankle injury, which could sideline him for three months, is a major problem for Jose Mourinho and Manchester United. After being without his best player, Paul Pogba, for two months, this long-term injury to another key member of the squad is a huge blow. The manager loves to find an excuse for his failings but it would be unfair not to acknowledge that United have been unfortunate when it's come to injuries this season. Rivals Manchester City have had their most important players, Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva, fit for every Premier League game this season, while Pogba has missed morethan half United's league matches.

It was a performance lacking in urgency until the 70th minute, when United seemed to realise the gravity of the situation, but a defeat with intensity and discipline of this nature was no less than they deserved. Positives David De Gea produced a cluster of saves that showed why he is one of the world's very best. Negatives Almost too numerous to mention, so conservative were the tactics, but Paul Pogba was poor in possession, Matteo Darmian and Ashley Young were too timid in wide areas, and Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford made poor decisions in attack. Manager rating out of 10 4 -- Mourinho chose two full-backs who did not push forward and put them behind a right-winger and central midfielder (Juan Mata and Marouane Fellaini) who lack pace.
