What happened. Hull City beat Manchester United 2-0, with goals from Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy from set pieces.
- United's new midfield of Santos and Tielemans failed to impress.
- Carrick's side were sloppy and vulnerable throughout.
- Amad Diallo missed out due to a training niggle.
“Calling Manchester United title contenders sounds like a joke based on this performance.”
— Chris Wheeler
