AT 8pm tomorrow, Manchester United return to the scene of one of the most humiliating results in the club's recent history.
United have suffered some embarrassing losses in the postSir Alex Ferguson era, most notably last season's crushing 7-0 mauling at Liverpool.
But the 4-0 defeat at Brentford last term (Ben Mee scoring, below) saw Erik ten Hag lose his first two games in charge and left United rock bottom of the Premier League on zero points.
It led to legitimate questions about Ten Hag's suitability to manage United, with the emphatic loss coming on the back of a 2-1 home defeat to Brighton on the opening day.
Ten Hag was so incensed with his players he cancelled a scheduled day off and made his squad 00 run 13.8km the distance Brentford outran United by in the blistering August heat. The United boss took part in the running punishment himself, to show his players he did not absolve himself of blame and to underline the importance of collective responsibility.
