MANCHESTER UNITED'S woes continue after another disappointing loss to Nottingham Forest.
Forest picked up a 1-0 victory at the City Ground thanks to ex-United ace Anthony Elanga's winner after just five minutes.
United remain 13th in the Premier League table and look set for their worst ever Premier League finish.
That is at least what their performance at Forest showed, as Ruben Amorim's men don't show signs of really understanding the Portuguese tactician's preferred 3-4-2-1 formation.
But who stood out for a poor United's side? And who was the biggest disappointment?

Can't blame him for Nottingham Forest's winner as Anthony Elanga's shot was too good.
Made a stunning save to deny Ryan Yates' header without knowing the Forest ace was offside.
Should have been more aware before Elanga's goal that came straight after a Man Utd corner-kick in which he had moved forward.
One could argue Yoro made up for it when he stopped a fine run by Elanga in the second half with an amazing and well-timed challenge to save United from a second.
The centre-back was also nowhere to be seen before Elanga's goal.
No other major errors but should have done better on the rebound after Diogo Dalot's header hit the crossbar.
Completely hopeless during Elanga's run that led to the goal and struggled in his defensive duties, especially in the first half.
Not sure if the full-back fits in a defensive trio as part of Ruben Amorim's 3-4-2-1 formation…

A strong performance down the right wing with some fine runs and good crosses.
Registered United's best chance in the first half when his header rattled Forest's crossbar.
At fault for Elanga's goal as there was absolutely no midfield presence during Forest's counter.
Loads of inaccurate passes and got booked for a reckless challenge on Yates before complaining in a very unjust way. Registered three shots but didn't cause concern for Matz Sels.
Cut a rather anonymous figure, among the guilty parties for Elanga's goal as Man Utd's midfield was caught sleeping. Rightly substituted at half-time.
A fine display during the first half as he cut a strong presence down the left flank, even though he was completely outrun by Elanga before the goal.
But the versatile full-back was the complete opposite in the second half with a series of errors against a stunning Neco Williams.
Registered the game's first shot on target with a powerful effort that required a lunge from Sels, and that was basically United's best shot throughout the entire match.
Fernandes produced some fine long balls and upgraded Man Utd's midfield after Ugarte and Casemiro's exits.
Very disappointing performance from the winger. Completely hopeless before Elanga's goal with a desperate tackle and was lucky to avoid a booking for a ridiculous challenge on Yates while the Argentina international was on the attack.
A game riddled with heavy touches, failed dribbles, wrong passes, blocked shots and a silly yellow card as he kicked the ball away in frustration. Had a good shot on 69 minutes as a saving grace.
Was supposed to be a striker but was often seen playing too deep and didn't register a chance in front of Forest's goal. Didn't inspire any danger even after Rasmus Hojlund came on to help him up front.
Was much better than a woeful Zirkzee up front for Man Utd. But didn't cause any significant danger and never looked like a goalscoring threat. Harry Maguire looked far more lethal as a false nine after he entered the pitch with a lot more presence inside the box.
Didn't really elevate United's midfield after Ugarte and Casemiro's exit. The sort of performance that makes one wonder about his Old Trafford future...
Only played nine minutes as a false nine and was by far Man Utd's best forward. Brought on as a desperation move that almost paid off with the best chance of the match as his last-gasp effort was cleared by Murillo just off the line.
