Manchester United are again facing serious criticism after suffering a shock defeat away to Newcastle United in the English Premier League on Sunday.

A second half Matt Ritchie goal was enough to deliver the three points for the relegation strugglers, leaving the Red Devils soul searching, now a massive sixteen points behind rivals Manchester City.

No United player came out of the match with any credit, with usually reliable stars failing to perform or cope with the passion and conviction of the Newcastle starting eleven, a team desperate to avoid relegation to the English Championship.

Fans were left fuming with the performance and had particularly harsh words for midfielder Paul Pogba, who looked off the pace all day in a more restrained defensive midfield role.

He also failed to challenge the set-piece that led to Newcastle's solitary goal effectively.

Is Jose Mourinho using him correctly, or is that simply an excuse for increasingly poor performances?

Man United fans took to Twitter to have their say...
