BREAKING NEWS as Rúben Amorim reveals the club he told Marcus Rashford to go and gain his confidence back ahead of next season.
Manchester United fans have expressed their frustration with Matthijs de Ligt following the team’s 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Anfield. Despite a strong start, United’s defensive lapses became the defining narrative of the match, with De Ligt bearing the brunt of the criticism.
The game began with promise for United, as they created several chances in the first half. Their efforts were rewarded in the 52nd minute when Lisandro Martinez surged into Liverpool’s penalty area and unleashed a powerful left-footed shot that ricocheted off the crossbar and into the net. However, their lead was short-lived, as Cody Gakpo equalized just six minutes later with a spectacular curling strike.
De Ligt’s performance came under intense scrutiny, especially for his role in the buildup to Liverpool’s first goal. His struggles were compounded when he received a yellow card in the 64th minute, further fueling fans’ disappointment. Social media buzzed with criticism, with supporters blaming him for crucial mistakes that shifted the momentum in Liverpool’s favor. Comments ranged from frustration over his decision-making to outright calls for him to be dropped from the squad.
Amad Diallo salvaged a point for United with a calm and composed finish late in the game, but the Dutch defender’s errors remained the main talking point. Fans’ dissatisfaction highlights the ongoing issues in United’s defense, which has been a recurring problem throughout the season.
Ruben Amorim now faces a critical choice ahead of the FA Cup clash against Arsenal: whether to stick with De Ligt or explore other defensive options. With the team in a precarious league position, the pressure is mounting not only on De Ligt but on the entire squad to deliver a stronger performance and get their season back on track.
