Looked to me like the goaltender for United was out of position on the Burnley goal...

Regardless of where he was, that shot was a freaking blast. Would've been tough to stop period.

The bigger problem for Sir Alex is that his goalie was not on the field and his preferred #2 is not proving to be the guy.
