The £80m captain Maguire isn't showing leadership, Shaw keeps going AWOL and Lindelof will surely be replaced but Telles and Wan-Bissaka are rare positives... Man United's defenders rated after woeful 'Hackney Marshes' display in Istanbul

Paul Scholes compared it to 'Under 10s football'. Rio Ferdinand claimed you 'wouldn't see this on Hackney Marshes.' Robin van Persie couldn't remember any team conceding such a bad goal.

This wasn't the Dog and Duck third XI, though, it was Manchester United being humiliated by Istanbul Basaksehir on the Champions League stage.

United fans like to sing about being the 'Pride of all Europe' but on Wednesday night their defence was the continent's laughing stock.
