The Red Devils lost 4-0 against Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium in their Premier League clash on Saturday. Goalkeeper David de Gea made two mistakes, which directly led to the first two goals.
He initially failed to make what should have been a rather routine save from a Josh Dasilva shot. He then passed it to Christian Eriksen, who was under pressure from Mathias Jensen only for the latter to win the ball and score.
Ben Mee and Bryan Mbuemo then added one goal apiece to make it 4-0 inside 35 minutes of the match.
Agbonlahor, like many pundits, has slammed this display from Erik ten Hag’s side. He told Talksport:
He added:
The Red Devils have now lost both of their opening fixtures after going 2-1 down against Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford last weekend. They will now face arch-rivals Liverpool at home in their next match on August 22.
David de Gea takes reponsibility for Manchester United’s loss against Brentford
After the match, David de Gea nominated himself to do the players’ post-match interview, where he admitted his mistakes. He stated that he should’ve done better, as he told Sky Sports:
Manchester United currently sit at the bottom of the Premier League table for the first time since 1992.
