Burnley plunged more misery on Manchester United as they beat Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side 2-0 to claim their first win at Old Trafford for 58 years
 United could have moved to within three points of Chelsea in fourth with a win but Chris Wood (39) and a stunning effort from Jay Rodriguez (56) further dented their hopes of climbing the league
For United, it was a similar story as they enjoyed over 70 per cent possession, a huge amount of territory but had absolutely no end-product with Nick Pope in the Burnley goal untested for large parts
The home fans that remained at full-time, which wasn't many, voiced their frustration at the final whistle as Burnley moved seven points clear of the drop zone after taking maximum points from their last two games
Old Trafford had been a place of comfort for Untied this season with only Crystal Palace leaving with maximum points and just 25 days after United won 2-0 at Turf Moor, there was a confidence about the hosts in the early stages
Aaron Wan-Bissaka was providing good width but both Juan Mata and the lacklustre Anthony Martial couldn't profit from his service when fluffing their lines from close range
Dan James rose highest to meet another ball from the right-back that drew action from Pope before Charlie Taylor produced an epic last-ditch tackle to thwart a dithering Martial
Burnley rode that storm and did what they do best, punish the opposition from set-pieces
The goal came on 39 minutes as United fell to pieces from under a direct free-kick into their area
 Nemanja Matic lost out to Ben Mee and his flick was seized upon by Wood, who reacted quicker than Harry Maguire and smacked a quality first-time finish into the top corner
Mason Greenwood was called from the bench at the break as Solskjaer looked for some spark
The youngster did show some skilful touches but everything United tried was read perfectly by an expertly-drilled Burnley defensive unit
With United fumbling around in the final third, Rodriguez showed how Solskjaer's team how it should be done with a quite sumptuous goal to make it 2-0
Rodriguez played a one-two with Wood and smacked an unstoppable rising drive that was too hot for David de Gea as the ball rocketed in off the underside of the crossbar
Mata sent a free-kick over after the crossbar after a stunning piece of skill from Greenwood drew a foul of Taylor before Martial tested Pope with a couple of tame efforts as the time ran out
A comeback never even came close to materialising and the home fans knew it
Manchester United have hit a new low
After making two uncharacteristic errors against Leicester on Sunday where his team-mates bailed him out, the Burnley skipper had a point to prove from the first whistle
 Martial was marked out of the game by the former Manchester City youngster, who was in his element defending his box like his life depended on it
 He made a match-high nine clearances as United's unimaginative attack were repelled with ease while his influence in attack also came to the fore when he won the flick on for Wood's all-important opening goal
, speaking on , said:"They finished well against Liverpool but though there was a shuffle at the back with Victor Lindelof ill, Man Utd never really got going
 Burnley were excellent - stubborn as anything - but this is miles away for Man Utd
 The January window has never been as big for them
"They're relying on young players with no outstanding leader in the team to help them
 They're missing Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay, which is not helping
 Harry Maguire is doing his best and Aaron Wan-Bissaka is different class but it's a huge job for Solskjaer
 The Theatre of Dreams was empty at the end; it's never empty
 The Bruno Fernandes signing is high priority now
 The spark is just not there
"Manchester United boss  said:"We didn't play well enough - they scored their chances, we didn't take ours
 It was disappointing
 Lately we've played better in these types of games and dominated
 Today we didn't get the first goal and that took a lot of belief out of us
 Burnley do make it hard to play against them
 The players are disappointed but they've gave everything once again - the effort is there
"I'm in charge, so it's down to me to get these boys going
 On the pitch we've got a few leaders there and there's young players experiencing these kind of expectations
 It's a difficult period
 It's a hard period for them
"Burnley boss  said:"I'm just so pleased for the players because they have to stay resilient through those tough times and ups and downs
 The last two games have been a brilliant reward for staying true to what we believe in
"There is a lot of noise about Manchester United, but they'd only lost one here all season, so they are still a fine side
"We came here with a thought that we could affect the game
 We knew we would have to be resilient because they are always going to create chances
"United are back in action on Sunday in the FA Cup fourth round where they'll be facing one of Tranmere or Watford, who play their replay on Thursday evening
 Meanwhile, Burnley take on Norwich at Turf Moor on Saturday with a place in the fifth round up for grabs
