A former Manchester United star has hit out at Red Devils captain Bruno Fernandes after the side's embarrassing 3-0 loss to Bournemouth.
The Red Devils were booed off the pitch at Old Trafford on Saturday evening, just three days after defeating rivals Chelsea.
To make matters worse, Fernandes will now miss next week's clash against Liverpool after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season.

"I wonder how many yellow cards he's had for dissent and waving his arms about," Owen said on Premier League Productions.
"Possibly you don't fancy going to Anfield. I wouldn't at the moment. I'm not sure you're thinking of the next game when you're in the thick of playing.
"He should be responsible, he should be a good ambassador, a leader for the team. '
"We all know referees are clamping down on that and he gets booked an awful lot for a player who hardly puts his foot in and tackles really he gets booked an awful lot."
Fernandes did speak to the media after the heavy defeat and did not hold back with his synopsis.
"We lacked many things and that's why we didn't get the result today. Everything was lower than the levels in the game before and that's why when you play teams like Bournemouth, who are really aggressive and on the front foot, they press you, and you think it's going to be easy, you get these kinds of results.
"Everything was underperforming. Creativity, movement, and arriving with bodies into the box. Most of the time we arrived with one or two players, but in the last game we had more getting in the box to score a goal.
"Today, it was, as I said, underperforming. We just lack consistency and that's a big part of football. It's really important to be consistent every game and we're not being."
