Man Utd slipped to a tame 2-0 defeat at Tottenham to maintain their poor away record from last season, with the midfield an area of concern for Erik ten Hag.
Mason Mount started this game brightly and was involved in some of United's best moments in the early exchanges, but he drifted out of the contest once again and is still yet to leave a significant imprint on a struggling midfield.
This is still early days for United's midfield and there is certainly more to come from Mount, but he needs a performance sooner rather than later and Erik ten Hag will want to see some more dominant displays from Casemiro as well, who is a shadow of the influential player he was last season at the moment.The wait for a significant away win in the Ten Hag era goes on for United.
If United are to improve on last season's third place then getting more points away from home is essential. This could have served as a confidence-boosting win. Instead, it just reinforced last season's flaws. United went behind in a game they had played well in and then just folded in the manner of the paper aeroplanes gathered behind Andre Onana's goal.
United found it harder to execute as the game wore on, however, partly due to the control Tottenham exerted in the second half. They looked the fitter side as the game wore on and opportunities for United to try and pin them in were few and far between.
