With #GlazersOut, #OleOut and #OleIn all trending last night in the wake of Manchester United's latest loss, football writer Daniel Harris joined OTB AM to survey the damage.
The journalist, and self-confessed Manchester United fan, warned that the club's problems are over the head of manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and that bigger changes than a new manager are needed to get back on track.
"You can blame him [Solskjaer] to a certain extent," he conceded, adding that he would have picked a different XI yesterday.
However, he added that United's early-season troubles are the result of a lack of depth in their squad:
"There was no reason why he [Ole] couldn't have been given more money to buy more players, apart from the fact that United have owners that use the club as their personal ATM.
"Their ambitions are not commensurate with the reputation of the club and the ambitions of the supporters. Until that changes, you are going to see lots more of 'this' [losses]."
He questioned whether the owners' interests go beyond balance sheets.
"As far as getting in the Champions League, the only way that I can possibly look at this is that the Glazers are not that bothered about getting into the Champions League.

"If they were they would have made more money available. They'd have given Solskjaer the money for two midfield players in the summer in addition to the players that he bought [and] I think they'd have a pretty good chance of getting there.
"They decided not to take that gamble. They decided that they would just continue milking the club. rather than speculating to accumulate."
Investment and #GlazersOut
Manchester United were the biggest spenders during this summer's transfer window - shelling out £148m.
Of that sum, £80m was spent securing the services of Harry Maguire.
However, the club's net spend (transfer fees on new players minus money earned from players leaving the club) is estimated to have been between £60-75m.
United made most of that money selling Romelu Lukaku to Inter Milan for £73.7m.
That compares to a net spend of £87m from league winners Manchester City.
The social media #GlazersOut campaign has criticised the owners for not reinvesting more of the clubs profits into the club.
