Manchester United crashed out of the Carabao Cup with an embarrassing 3-0 defeat to Newcastle at Old Trafford.
The holders were destroyed by Eddie Howe's side in the fourth round, with goals from Miguel Almiron, Lewis Hall and Joe Willock. Manager Erik ten Hag made a raft of changes in the game to try to turn the tie around but United were unable to get back in the contest.
Our chief United writer Samuel Luckhurst was in the press box for the match and here are his player ratings from the game.

Andre Onana
Had next to no help from the incompetents in front of him and was clinically beaten for all three goals. 5
Diogo Dalot
His first team starting stint may now be over. Culpable for both of the first-half goals and his dithering for Miguel Almiron's was particularly egregious. Hooked at half-time. 1
Victor Lindelof
Sloppy again on his return to centre half. Made captain for the second half but what influence he attempted to have fell on deaf ears. 4
Harry Maguire
His header inadvertently assisted Lewis Hall to volley in for a 2-0 lead but one of the few not entirely drained of confidence. 4
Sergio Reguilon
Reckless for Almiron's goal when he was caught out of position. Showing why he is/was Tottenham's third-choice left-back. 4
Casemiro
Off the pace again and booked for felling Joe Willock. Substituted at the interval for the second match running. 2
Mason Mount
Bar a late shot that Martin Dubravka diverted out for a corner, he offered nothing and was obliging for Tino Livramento for the first goal. 3
Antony
Another one dimensional performance from Erik ten Hag's
