THIS season's Manchester United is officially the WORST ever Premier League team in the club's illustrious history.

United have found themselves on quite a decline since legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013, which marked their last title success.

The Red Devils have struggled since Ferguson's departure, but never as much as this term as they are currently sixth in the Premier League table with a mere 58 points from 37 matches.

Ralf Rangnick's flops have one more Prem game left to mercifully end a miserable campaign, which started with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at the helm, against Crystal Palace on May 22 at Selhurst Park.

That means United could complete the season with a maximum of 61 points, which is their lowest ever tally in the English top flight since the Premier League's inception in 1992.

After Saturday's 4-0 thrashing at Brighton they have also officially conceded 56 league goals, their most in a single campaign in the competition.

The Manchester giants have endured an ever poorer campaign than the 2013/2014 term when David Moyes replaced Sir Alex and failed to complete the season.

United finished with Ryan Giggs as interim manager in seventh place with 64 points.

Victory at the Amex Stadium would have allowed Rangnick's men to hope to equal Moyes' points tally but ultimately remained on 58 points with one more game to go.

The Red Devils splashed the cash last summer for some top-shelf signings as Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane joined up and were followed by club legend Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Manchester giants looked set to challenge for the title for the first time in almost 10 years but ended up hoping they don't miss out on Europa League football next season.

It is evident that incoming manager Erik ten Hag has a lot of work to do at Old Trafford.
