The damaging defeat would have done little to reassure the club’s latest signing that he has made the right move, with new boy Obi Martin at Old Trafford for the first time to watch the game.
Footage has emerged of teen sensation outside the stadium on Sunday.
It comes just days after the Premier League ratified his switch from Arsenal to Man Utd.
The 16-year-old has already agreed personal terms with the club and now has the green light to put pen to paper.
Obi Martin is currently a free agent after his contract at Arsenal expired.
He has been tipped as a future star and he went viral last season after scoring TEN goals against Liverpool in a 14-3 win for the Gunners’ Under-16s team.
Overall, the Danish-born striker scored 32 goals in 24 appearances in the youth-team last term.

That tally includes a seven-goal haul against Norwich, five goals versus West Ham, four strikes in back-to-back games over Crystal Palace and Fulham as well as two more hat-tricks.
Obi Martin’s goalscoring saw him train with the Arsenal first-team last season.
Despite representing Denmark on the international stage, there has been rumours that the FA are hoping to convince him to represent England in the future.
Man Utd ratings vs Tottenham
MANCHESTER UNITED suffered a 3-0 thrashing against Tottenham at Old Trafford.
Captain Bruno Fernandes was sent off in the first half for fouling James Maddison, forcing Erik Ten Hag’s side to play with 10 men against Ange Postecoglou’s team.
After back-to-back draws against Crystal Palace and FC Twente fans hoped United would redeem themselves against Spurs.
However, the match at Old Trafford quickly turned sour. Brennan Johnson scored early and things worsened when Fernandes was sent off allowing Spurs to extend their lead to 3-0.
And here is how SunSports Charlie Wyett rated the Manchester United stars.
Andre Onana – 5
Stood his ground to deliver a good save from Timo Werner who was clean through – no chance for either goal.
Noussair Mazraoui – 5
First in the refs’ book for chopping down Destiny Udogie. Could also have blocked Micky van de Ven for the goal. Just watched Solanke make it 3-0.
Matthijs de Ligt – 4
Shocking first half. Failed to cut out the cross from Micky van de Ven which led to the first goal.
Lisandro Martinez – 5
Switched off for the Spurs goal and was drawn to the ball and Johnson was left unmarked.
Diogo Dalot – 5
Gave the ball away in dangerous areas and struggled against Johnson.
Manuel Ugarte – 5
Suffered a stinker and was lucky to last until the 73rd minute.
Kobbie Mainoo – 5
Not one of his better performances and was taken off just before half-time following Fernandes’ sending-off.
Marcus Rashford – 5
Over-ran the ball for Tottenham’s first. Way off the pace.
Bruno Fernandes – 4
Arguably the worst captain in United’s history. Deserved red card for his challenge on James Maddison.
Alejandro Garnacho – 6
Had United’s only chance in the first half but hit the outside of the post. Improved in the second half.
Joshua Zirkzee – 5
Looked completely lost up front – threatening to be another poor Erik ten Hag signing. Replaced at half-time.
Subs:
Mount (for Mainoo 45) 5, Casemiro (for Zirkzee 46) 7, Hojlund (for Rashford 73) 5, Eriksen (for Ugarte 73) 5.
