Mark Goldbridge went into meltdown over Manchester United's performance against Newcastle and made a comparison to boxing star Tyson Fury.

United lost their third consecutive Premier League game without scoring under Ruben Amorim with a 2-0 defeat against the Magpies at Old Trafford.

First half goals from Alexander Isak and Joelinton sealed victory for Eddie Howe's side, with Newcastle netting twice inside 20 minutes.

Isak could have had a second early on when a long ball over the top played him clean through on goal, but he couldn't lift his effort over Andre Onana.

Amorim then decided to substitute Joshua Zirkzee, who was jeered by United supporters at Old Trafford and beIN Sports claimed that he was close to tears walking down the tunnel in what could end up being his final game for the club.

The Portuguese boss did bring Marcus Rashford back into the squad after a four-game absence but he was an unused substitute, with United lacking a cutting edge in front of goal with the chances they did create in the second half.

But supporters were already concerned about the prospect of a defeat after seeing the teamsheet, with Casemiro and Christian Eriksen lining up as a midfield two in particular raising eyebrows.

And after the first and second goals went in on four and 19 minutes, The United Stand presenter Goldbridge lost it with the team.

"You're so s**t!" he began. "Absolutely s**t. First attack and it's a f***ing goal. You should be sponsored by bloody Andrex. One-nil down already.

After the second goal, he fumed: "I can't believe it. I can't believe it! It's like watching a replay! It's like watching UK Gold but it's not Gold, it's absolutely s**t!

"It's literally the same thing again. Lisandro Martinez up against Joelinton, it's just like Tyson Fury jumping up for a header with Bilbo Baggins."

After the match, Goldbridge had composed himself slightly and decided to call out who believes to be at fault for the current United crisis.

He wrote: "Actually feel more positive than I have in years. A manager who is with us. Players and owners who need calling out. Let's have it."
