Manchester United have a long list of players out on loan right now, and one has just had a nightmare performance.
Despite several success stories this season, the loan list at Manchester United has been shaken up.
Harry Amass joined Norwich City, switching from Sheffield Wednesday to join a club higher up the Championship, playing better football, and also getting the youngster into a back four.
In addition, Toby Collyer has headed to Hull City after leaving West Brom, which now sees the midfielder straight into a promotion hunt.
However, there is one championship loanee who has stayed put.

Vitek started in goal to take on Derby County, and he wouldn’t have expected to ship five goals, making just one save.
It wasn’t like Derby had a lot of shots, with seven on target, meaning Vitek prevented -2.21 goals, which means he conceded 2.21 more than the data shows he should have.
In Vitek’s 33-touch performance, he wasn’t completely at fault for the goals, but he could have done much better for some of the Derby chances.
Vitek’s performance was only worthy of a 5.6 match rating, but it might have been much worse.

Advantage Senne Lammens in Manchester United goalkeeper battle
While yet to make his competitive debut for United, many assume that Vitek will challenge Senne Lammens next season for the number one slot.
Both are excellent goalkeepers, young, and would be a very strong set of options for Michael Carrick or whoever takes charge.
However, this performance proved that Vitek has a nightmare display in him, which will surely give advantage to Lammens.
Vitek is way better than he showed in this performance, but he needs to prove it all again now, especially to demonstrate that he has the mental toughness to bounce back from a humbling thrashing.
