DAVID Moyes admitted his Manchester United side have problems EVERYWHERE after they slumped to a second straight Premier League loss.
 Reigning champions United are teetering on the brink of a full-blown crisis after a third defeat in their first six league games condemned them to their worst start for 24 years. They have not scored in open play in the Premier League since the opening day of the season at Swansea - a worrying drought of 450 minutes. And with United languishing in 12th place, their proud record of never having finished outside the Premier League’s top four appears under serious threat.
 To add to Moyes’ troubles, his side face a hazardous Champions League trip to face Shakhtar Donetsk on Wednesday. The Scot cut a forlorn figure after United’s 2-1 defeat to West Brom at Old Trafford as he conceded he has issues with every aspect of his under-performing team. “There were lots of things that disappointed me,” said the man who succeeded Sir Alex Ferguson this summer.
 “I don’t think the midfield was just the one department where you’d say we were lacking. I think it would be unfair to say it was any [specific area]. “It was the whole thing, we were lacklustre in nearly all the areas. “So we’ve got to try and work on it and improve. We’ve just not played that well. We should be scoring more from open play. Back to back: Rooney and United have lost successive league games John Peters “What surprised me is that I felt, with the amount of possession we had in the first-half, we didn’t go on to create enough opportunities.
 “But I was also disappointed in that, from a game we controlled and in the main had the majority of the ball, we allowed ourselves to give them quite easy chances against us.” The one consolation for Moyes on the day was title rivals Manchester City also slipping up in a 3-2 at Aston Villa - although United already trail leaders Arsenal by eight points.
