Manchester United faced another tough Premier League loss as Bournemouth added to the misery for Erik 10 Hag with their first victory at Old Trafford.
The visitors secured a well-deserved 3-0 win with goals from Dominic Solanke, Philip Billing, and Marcos Senesi, further worsening United’s poor Premier League season with their eighth defeat so far.
It’s a challenging start to a crucial week for United manager Ten Hag, with a must-win Champions League group-stage finale against Bayern Munich on Tuesday and a visit to Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.
Ten Hag’s tactical changes backfired as Bournemouth raced to an impressive victory, and their margin of triumph could have been even greater after Dango Ouattara had a fourth goal disallowed for handball late on.

Bournemouth had never won at Old Trafford and had only collected four points from their last 11 Premier League meetings with United. They ended the jinx today in emphatic style with a resounding 3-0 victory. Solanke opened the scoring after just 5 minutes when he turned in Cook’s cross, while a pair of second-half headers from Billing and Senesi – both from Tavernier crosses – sealed the points and piled pressure on Ten Hag. Now unbeaten in 5, Bournemouth look to extend that streak when they host Luton Town next Sunday. United must quickly recover ahead of their must-win Champions League clash with Bayern Munich at Old Trafford on Tuesday. That’s all for today. Till next time, goodbye!
