BREAKING: Wayne Rooney Slams Manchester United’s Collapse—Calls Current Squad “Lost and Directionless”
Manchester United’s season hit yet another devastating low after a 2-0 loss to West Ham at Old Trafford, leaving them languishing in 16th place in the Premier League. The latest defeat has only heightened the growing concerns surrounding manager Ruben Amorim and the team’s uninspired performances.
Wayne Rooney, one of the club’s most iconic figures, delivered a scathing critique, expressing disbelief at how far the team has fallen. According to him, the squad appears utterly directionless and unmotivated, and he singled out a particular player as the worst on the pitch during a chaotic and disheartening display. Rooney emphasized the shame in seeing a club of Manchester United’s stature stuck so low in the standings.
The encounter with West Ham exposed familiar weaknesses. Despite deploying what seemed like a strong starting eleven, United struggled to convert their early momentum into anything meaningful. West Ham’s Tomas Soucek broke the deadlock in the 27th minute, and Jarrod Bowen doubled the lead in the second half, taking full advantage of a defensive lapse.
Manuel Ugarte bore the brunt of fan frustration for his costly error that led to the second goal, while Kobbie Mainoo also failed to leave a mark on the match. The only glimmer of hope came from Amad Diallo, whose efforts stood out in an otherwise uninspired team performance.
This loss extends United’s winless streak in the league to six games, raising serious doubts about the team’s trajectory under Amorim. With just two fixtures left, the threat of a historically poor league finish looms large.
As time runs out on a disastrous campaign, pressure is mounting on the club to confront its internal challenges. The discontent among supporters and former players is growing louder, with many demanding urgent and sweeping changes to revive the club’s lost identity and competitive spirit.
