Ruben Amorim warned there would be short-term pain to achieve long-term gain at Manchester United, and on a windy and rather wild afternoon at Old Trafford, Bournemouth piled on the hurt again.
If their 3-0 win here at Old Trafford a year ago came as something of shock, it's a sign of the deep-seated malaise that Amorim has been brought in to cure at United that this kind of result should no longer be a surprise.
'Man United, it's happening again,' sang the jubilant Bournemouth fans as United suffered a recurring nightmare before Christmas.
