Manchester United are going through a rocky period at the moment both on and off the pitch.

Having played seven Premier League fixtures this season they have taken nine points with three wins and four losses so far.

Their most recent defeat came yesterday afternoon when Crystal Palace visited Old Trafford as Joachim Andersen finished magnificently on the half-volley after twenty-five minutes to secure a 1-0 victory for The Eagles.

Boos rang out at full-time as Erik Ten Hag's side disappointed once again.

In the Champions League they were beaten 4-3 by Bayern Munich away from home in their opening group stage game less than two weeks ago and now welcome Turkish side Galatasaray on Tuesday night.

They remain involved in the League Cup after a 3-0 win over Crystal Palace during the week and will face Newcastle in the fourth round on November 1st.

Off the pitch anger amongst Manchester United fans continues to simmer with the Glazer family who have owned the club since 2005.

Fans are frustrated by the lack of investment under the current ownership and have been calling for change at the top for a long period of time to no avail.

It has been rumoured that the club could also be looking at demolishing Old Trafford which was built in 1910 and hasn't been significantly redeveloped since 2006.

It's certain that the stadium does need some repairs as was evident by a video which surfaced on social media yesterday afternoon of the roof leaking heavily in the Stretford End.

Fans were quick to comment describing it as a "disgrace", "embarrassment" and "shambles."

The issue has been raised before at a meeting of the official Manchester United fans forum and it could be argued that it is symbolic of the current situation in the club.
