Three on the bounce…
Man United slipped to their third straight loss today as they went down 3-1 away to Watford in the Premier League this afternoon.
Watford took the lead on 34 minutes when Étienne Capoue side footed it past David De Gea in the Man United net.
The Red Devils hit back when a ball rather fortuitously fell to Marcus Rashford inside the box and he slipped it home. But the parity wasn’t to last very long.
Substitute Juan Zuniga came onto the pitch on 81 minutes and scored with his first touch two minutes later.
Troy Deeney wrapped up the scoring in injury time with a penalty after Fellaini fouled Zuniga.
Watford were full value for their win as United looked ponderous for large periods of the game and at times looked more like a collection of players than a team.
Three defeats on the bounce for Mourinho, and Twitter reacted in predictable fashion…
Suspect Mourinho is losing on purpose to get sacked and secure his dream move to United

Manchester United lose 3 games in a week. I'm not sure even Louis Van Gaal managed that achievement.

Utd fans are the most deluded for talking about winning treble. These 3 consecutive defeats is the only treble they are going to get #WATMUN

Looking forward to hearing what the "Losing One" has to say after this one. #WATMUN

£150m spent in the summer & a poorer start than under LVG last season! If there was ever a stat to make me smile that's it! #WATMUN
