Manchester United fans have made their feelings clear following their defeat against Tottenham in the Carabao Cup.
Ruben Amorim recalled Alejandro Garnacho to the match day squad but there was still no place for Marcus Rashford who admitted he was ready to leave the club during a bombshell interview earlier this week.
Amorim claimed his omission was purely down to ‘selection’ and admitted he was pleased with Garnarcho’s performances in training after being dropped for the Manchester derby.
Nevertheless, the Argentine, who returned to the side from the bench, was unable to prevent United from crashing out of the cup.
Ange Postecoglou’s side took an early lead through Dominic Solanke after some suspect goalkeeping from Altay Bayindir and doubled their advantage through Dejan Kulusevski shortly after half-time.
Solanke secured his brace just ten minutes later and United fans were all left pointing the finger in the same direction with Lisandro Martinez receiving heavy criticism on social media for his role in the Spurs goals.
Gary Neville described his clearance as ‘whimpish’ in the build-up to Kulusevski’s finish and fans have also made their feelings clear.
One fan said: “Martinez having an absolute stinker! Shocking defending. Cost us the game”
Another added: “People won’t want to hear it but Martinez has been poor for months, had a great game in the Derby but apart from that he’s looked very suspect for a long time. Nothing like his first season self.”
A third said: “He needs to become a squad player if we’re honest, not good enough to win a league title.”
A fourth added: “I would sell him in the summer. I know he’d need replacing but frankly, even in his first year he had moments where he looked suspect. He’s just not top 4 prem quality and cannot be trusted.”
A fifth concluded: “Not been the same since the injury, think we probably need a new LCB in the summer.
