The nightmare continues for Manchester United as Jose Mourinho’s side have now lost in three consecutive games, the latest a 3-1 humbling from an impressive Watford at Vicarage Road.
Only days before, the Red Devils opened their Europa League campaign in disastrous fashion as they slumped to a 1-0 defeat to Dutch side Feyenoord.
The weekend before, yet another defeat at the hands of noisy neighbours Manchester City.
Former Chelsea manager Mourinho now faces a difficult away day in the League Cup on Wednesday night as his side take on Northampton Town, a team who have lost only 3 times in the whole of 2016.
The shaky start to the season has left fans here at Tavern begging as to why a number of the players are still in the squad, especially considering the club’s astronomical spending over the summer.
The local United-ers think these THREE should be given the long overdue chop, do you agree?
Marcos Rojo

Need I say more? Can’t defend and clearly can’t make toast either. I’m not sure which he is worst at either.
It is time that Rojo departed Old Trafford, as he is clearly not good enough for frequent Premier League football.
Chris Smalling
United fans were raving about the newly in-form and matured Chris Smalling of last season, however after an awful Euro 2016 and poor start to the season, the cracks are once again starting to show for the young defender.
The former academy looks shaky without the presence of Daley Blind alongside him, and unfortunately does not have the character or strength of mind to lead the side as he should do.
Wayne Rooney
The man almost all United fans are crying for to be dropped got just that treatment against Feyenoord, however returned to the side this weekend only to put in yet another shoddy performance against Watford.
Ever since his positional dilemma for England, Rooney looks adrift and without a solid position.
Earlier in the season Mourinho said he ‘doesn’t need to tell Rooney where and how to play’. Second thoughts maybe, Jose?
