Manchester United are currently experiencing their worst start to any Premier League season since the inception of England’s top-flight league in 1992.
Michael Carrick’s men are only one point above the Premier League relegation zone and Manchester United are 16th in the table after their opening eight matches.
Messi and Ronaldo RUINED the Ballon d'Or
The Red Devils have only won once in the Premier League in the 2026-27 season after Man Utd’s 5-2 comeback win over Ipswich Town at Old Trafford in August.
United manager Michael Carrick has overseen four draws and three defeats for the Red Devils, as the Premier League club only have seven points in total so far.
United lost the game 3-0… do you still agree with the decision not to give Bruno ANY minutes?
I don't think we can get anything from games with the current crop of players. They were doing the same under van Gaal, Mourinho, Solj, TH, RA and Carrick. This group will continue to distabilize the club if MU continue firing managers. They have too much power. Look at Fernandes - the captain?, Rashford not even apologising, Sancho!!!
Hello again. I totally agree that we should of been getting at least 1 of Anderson, Scott & Wharton. We should have been all in for Hall also. I though do think the bigger problem is having all the ex united players around. Get proper World Class coaches. They can turn 11 individuals into a team of players.
I too, respect your opinion, it wouldn't do for us all to agree now, would it lol ? I wonder what your opinion would be to this. We spent god knows how much in the summer window, including their wages. How much did Anderson cost and what are his wages. SURELY we got the shitty end of that particular stick?
Michael Carrick was dealt another major blow in his Old Trafford reign on Sunday after Manchester United’s 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth. OptaJoe on X, formerly known as Twitter, shared that United’s current season is their lowest points total since the 1986-87 campaign.
The 1986-87 season at Old Trafford took place in the old First Division format and marked the final period of Ron Atkinson’s managerial reign. Ron Atkinson only chalked up one win from United’s first eight First Division matches before he was later sacked and replaced by Sir Alex Ferguson in 1986.
The Red Devils picked up two First Division draws and suffered five defeats under Atkinson, who only managed five points in total after the opening eight league matches. Carrick’s current total of points narrowly puts United ahead of the Red Devils’ last worst start to the season four decades ago.
Goal difference is identical between the 2026-27 Premier League season and the 1986-87 First Division campaign after the first eight matches. Both Carrick and Atkinson’s respective Man Utd sides scored 10 times and conceded 13 times in their underperforming seasons.
In the Premier League era, the Red Devils have fallen short of two of their other poor starts to their respective seasons. Man Utd’s two other worst-performing starts came in the 2019-20 and 2024-25 seasons after the Red Devils had eight points from eight matches.
Goals from Rayan and Marcus Tavernier in the first half and Evanilson in the second half ensured Bournemouth’s 3-0 Premier League win over United at Old Trafford on Sunday. The Red Devils will now travel away this weekend and will face Chelsea in their Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
