Manchester United slipped to yet another dismal defeat at the hands of Bournemouth, who made them pay for their mistakes in a one-sided victory at Old Trafford.
They took full advantage of a hapless display from the hosts, deservedly claiming the spoils to move into the Premier League's top five.
Dean Huijsen broke the deadlock in the first half, heading home from inside the box after being left unmarked. Justin Kluivert doubled Bournemouth's advantage from the penalty spot following a rash challenge from Noussair Mazraoui.
Antoine Semenyo added a third shortly afterwards to further humiliate their opponents and put the result beyond any doubt.
It marked United's eighth league defeat of the season, with the Red Devils still a million miles away from the standards they should be setting.

Man Utd player ratings
Andre Onana - 4
Was powerless to prevent the opening two goals, but could have done better for the third. Never looked particularly convincing.
Noussair Mazraoui - 3
Was having an okay game until he brainlessly gave away a penalty on the hour mark. Should have stayed on his feet rather than diving in and letting his team down.
Harry Maguire - 4
Sloppy on the ball, particularly in the first half. Settled down after the break until his head dropped when Bournemouth began to twist the knife.
Lisandro Martinez - 3
Looked uncomfortable throughout. Criminal defending for Bournemouth's third goal, allowing Semenyo to slot the ball home under little pressure. Poor.
Diogo Dalot - 4
Worked hard but did not have the end product to match. Wasteful in possession and relatively anonymous in defence. Struggled with the accuracy of his crossing.
Manuel Ugarte - 4
Booked for a cynical foul on Kluivert in the first half. Did little else. Replaced by Alejandro Garnacho before the hour mark.

Kobbie Mainoo - 5
Not sharp enough on the ball to make the sort of impact he would have liked. No lack of effort, but didn't have his best game in a United shirt.
Tyrell Malacia - 2
Dire display. Struggled to provide any sort of attacking threat, which is so important under United's new wing-back system. Deservedly hooked at half-time.
Amad Diallo - 5
Tried to make things happen in the final third. Probably his side's best performer on a bad day at the office for the whole team in general.
Bruno Fernandes - 5
Went close a couple of times but was unable to break the deadlock. Forced a smart save from Kepa Arrizabalaga just before the interval, but failed to inspire his team when the going got tough.
Joshua Zirkzee - 2
Lost his man for the opening goal, giving Huijsen a free header when he really should have been under more pressure. Failed to offer much in attack. A desperately poor showing.
Substitutes
Leny Yoro - 4
Failed to prevent United from conceding another two goals after being introduced for the second half.
Rasmus Hojlund - 5
Showed plenty of desire but ended up running around a lot without actually doing much to impact the game.
Alejandro Garnacho - 5
Worked hard in an effort to make things happen but was unable to make a difference.
