It isn't just the first team at Manchester United which are in crisis.
Warren Joyce's reserve side surrendered a 1-0 lead in the 88th minute before being consigned to a shock penalty shootout defeat against Bolton Wanderers in the quarter-final of the Lancashire Senior Cup.
United's youngsters, who beat Manchester City to win this competition last August, have also seen their progress stunted in the FA Youth Cup, where they were knocked out in the 5th round at Huddersfield Town, while the club are also in severe danger of relinquishing their under-21 Premier League crown.
