Manchester United's 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace on Monday night was a humiliating experience for the team and their fans. The injury-hit squad struggled to cope with Palace's dominant performance, and several players had a night to forget. Here are three of the worst players from United's disappointing display.
1. Christian Eriksen
Christian Eriksen's performance was one of the most disappointing aspects of United's defeat. Starting by default, Eriksen was off the pace for both first-half goals and struggled to make an impact throughout the game. His lack of energy and creativity in midfield was evident, and he was lucky not to be substituted earlier.
2. Casemiro
Casemiro's rash and impetuous charge out of defense to engage Michael Olise was a turning point in the game. He was turned with alarming ease and hounded for the fourth goal. His lack of discipline and positional awareness was a liability for United's defense, and his performance was a far cry from his usual standards.
3. Jonny Evans
Jonny Evans was another player who struggled to cope with Palace's attacking prowess. Skinned by Jean-Philippe Mateta for the second goal, Evans was utterly overwhelmed throughout the game. His lack of pace and mobility was exposed, and he was unable to deal with the physicality of Palace's attackers.
