🗣️”Amorim needs to get rid of these two players from United if he really wants to keep his job for long,he can’t achieve anything with these two in the Squad” Manchester United legends and now pundits has expressed their disappointment in 2️⃣players following United defeat against wolves 2-0…they think Amorim needs to make a huge decision regarding them if he wants to succeed as Manchester United Head coach
Manchester United’s recent 2-0 defeat to Wolves has sparked intense criticism from former players turned pundits, who have singled out Bruno Fernandes and Rasmus Højlund for their underwhelming performances. The loss has amplified scrutiny on the team, with calls for drastic changes to salvage the season.
Spotlight on Fernandes and Højlund
1. Bruno Fernandes’ Leadership Questioned
The United captain endured a torrid outing, receiving a red card for two rash challenges and earning a dismal rating of 3. This marks his third dismissal of the season, prompting doubts about his suitability as a leader.
> “His actions were reckless and cost the team dearly,” remarked a pundit.
2. Rasmus Højlund’s Ineffectiveness
Højlund, back in the starting lineup, struggled to make an impact, managing only 14 touches throughout the match. Critics argue his lack of service is no excuse for his inability to influence play or trouble a leaky Wolves defense.
> “He offered nothing upfront and appeared visibly frustrated,” noted the match analysis.
Broader Team Issues
Defensive Vulnerabilities
The backline failed to keep a clean sheet once again, conceding a goal directly from a corner. Though Noussair Mazraoui earned praise with a rating of 6.5, the rest of the defense, including Lisandro Martínez and Harry Maguire, failed to inspire confidence.
Midfield Struggles
United’s midfield lacked control and creativity, with Manuel Ugarte and Kobbie Mainoo failing to assert themselves. Both were substituted in the second half as the team searched for an equalizer.
Manager Rúben Amorim Under Pressure
The defeat piles pressure on manager Rúben Amorim, whose ability to instill discipline and raise standards within the squad is being questioned. Pundits suggest that parting ways with Fernandes and Højlund could be necessary to rebuild the team’s morale and competitiveness.
Looking Ahead
With crucial matches against Newcastle and Liverpool on the horizon, Manchester United’s season hangs in the balance. The January transfer window could provide an opportunity for reinforcements, but decisive action—both tactically and personnel-wise—will be
essential to reverse their fortunes.
