Progress Amidst Defeat

Manchester United chief Richard Arnold has insisted that the club is still "making good progress" despite their disappointing 3-0 loss to Manchester City on Sunday, according to reports. The Red Devils were outclassed at Old Trafford by their local rivals, with Erling Haaland scoring twice and Phil Foden adding a third for City.

Tough Season So Far

Man Utd's defeat to City leaves them eight points adrift of the top four and 11 points behind league leaders Tottenham. It's been a tough season for the Red Devils, who have already suffered five league defeats out of 10, a record not seen since 1986.

Arnold's Claims

Despite the team's poor performance, Manchester Evening News reports that Richard Arnold, the club's chief, believes they are still "making good progress". This claim has not been well-received by fans, with many expressing their frustration on social media.

Fan Reactions

Reacting to Arnold's claims, one fan on social media said, "What progress? The club is a joke to them obviously." Another added, "If I was doing a bad job and wanted to justify my poor work, I'd be saying this too." The sentiment among fans is that the club is not living up to expectations.

Uncertain Future for Arnold and Ten Hag

Rumors suggest that Richard Arnold may be axed from his position if Sir Jim Ratcliffe's 25% takeover of the club goes through. Meanwhile, manager Erik ten Hag, who has a contract until 2025, is also facing heavy criticism for the team's poor start to the season.

Upcoming Matches

Manchester United's next match is a Carabao Cup clash with Newcastle on Wednesday, followed by an away game against Fulham on Saturday.
