That’s just a few of the adjectives used by talkSPORT’s Alex Crook to characterize Manchester United following their humbling 4-1 loss to local rivals Manchester City on Sunday.
Crook, a Manchester United supporter, believes the club’s owners ‘deserve’ to see how poorly it is performing after failing to operate it effectively since Sir Alex Ferguson departed in 2013.
And he claims that this is the worst team he’s ever seen, citing Harry Maguire as someone who should be nowhere near the starting XI.
“I think it’s depressing, but it’s what the owners deserve,” Crook said on talkSPORT.
