Paul Fennessy CELEBRATED IRISH novelist James Joyce once wrote “history is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake,” and he might as well have been referring to the present-day Man United squad.
The Cesc Fabregas-Alex Ferguson pizza gate incident and the Ruud van Nistelrooy-Martin Keown spat are two other occasions that spring to mind. On the bench was Rasmus Højlund, the €70 million forward who has failed to score in his last 20 appearances. It was no major surprise then that the first half in particular was largely a damp squib, as both sides invariably lacked cutting edge.

Instead, the pressure has only intensified and the performances, for the most part, have gotten worse.
