Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes that Manchester United are a playing "without hope" following their 3-0 home loss to Manchester City.
United suffered their fifth defeat in ten games in the Premier League on Sunday.
The team also lost two of their first three games in the Champions League.
Wenger spoke to beIN Sports and said the following: "I would say the gulf between the two teams became bigger and bigger as the game went on.
"In the end, for such a big club you felt sorry for United because there's no hope there in the team.
"I don't see where they can improve, basically. This team has lost confidence, quality and even spirit today. I would say it was not a great fighting spirit from Man United, on top of that."
"And I felt today they were very poor to build the game up from the back. They gave the ball so many times to the goalkeeper when they had possibilities to play forward. I would stay it started there."
