The Red Devils have endured a miserable start to the campaign and are already six points behind neighbours and reigning champions Manchester City.
Sandwiched between a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham, they did manage to record unconvincing home victories over Wolves and Nottingham Forest before the 3-1 loss at Arsenal.
They have already lost full-backs Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia to injury while boss Erik ten Hag and Jadon Sancho’s public fall-out also rocked the club.
Meanwhile, Antony has also been accused of domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend Gabriela Cavallin and domestic abuse campaigners urged the Manchester giants to ditch him.
Police in Manchester and Sao Paulo are investigating, while the winger was also dropped by Brazil for their 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Bolivia and Peru.
That came after Mason Greenwood secured a controversial loan to Getafe.
United were forced into a U-turn over Greenwood coming back to the first team after charges of attempted rape and assault were dropped.
A public backlash led to the Red Devils dropping the striker, who then moved to Spain.
Now new signing Sofyan Amrabat has pulled out of the Morocco squad due to injury.

United were aware of a slight problem with the midfielder’s back after he completed his £8.5m loan transfer from Fiorentina on deadline day.
But they still allowed him to join up with his national side this week for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Liberia on Saturday and Tuesday’s home friendly with Burkina Faso.
But now Amrabat will play no part in either game after he pulled out of the squad and was replaced by Yahya Jabrane.
And the news had fed-up United supporters, who are already glooming that the Glazers are no longer selling the club, quickly taking to X, formerly known as Twitter.
“This is getting ridiculous,” reacted one supporter to the latest piece of bad news on social media.
Another wrote: “This pain never ends.”
A fellow fan begged: “End the season already!!!!!”
While another tweet read: “Wake me when the season starts.”
It remains unclear whether Amrabat is heading straight back to Manchester to continue his rehabilitation.
But Ten Hag will be desperate for the new boy to be back and available for their trip to Brighton on September 16 – especially with their Champions league campaign starting just four days later against Bayern Munich.
