Micah Richards, on BBC’s Final Score was shocked at how unstructured United were at Carrow Road.

He said: “It wasn't a typical Steve Bruce performance.

“He normally has a structure saying - you will NOT pass. It could have been seven.

“He will take something from the goal but he will be very disappointed.”
