Manchester United’s legend Michael Owen names three United’s players who should never wear the club’s shirt again after their horrible performance against Tottenham Hotspur.
Michael Owen has sparked controversy with a scathing critique of three Manchester United players following their embarrassing loss to Tottenham Hotspur. The former United striker, visibly frustrated during his analysis on Sky Sports, declared that these players no longer deserve to represent the club. He slammed their lack of passion, commitment, and quality, emphasizing that they had squandered multiple chances to prove their worth. According to Owen, wearing the Manchester United shirt comes with high expectations, and those who cannot handle the pressure should leave immediately.
Although Owen refrained from naming the trio on live television, sources close to the club identified [Player A], [Player B], and [Player C] as the ones under fire for their disappointing performances. Their errors contributed heavily to United’s downfall, from a costly defensive mistake to a weak midfield display and poor decision-making in attack. The defeat, which saw United outplayed and outfought by Tottenham, left fans seething and calling for change. Social media erupted with #GloriousShirt trending as supporters demanded accountability, with many agreeing with Owen’s harsh assessment. Some, however, argued that the team’s issues went beyond individual players, criticizing the coaching staff’s tactics and selections.
The backlash adds more pressure on United’s head coach, Rúben Amorim, whose tactics are under intense scrutiny. Reports suggest that Amorim is preparing for an urgent meeting with the board to address possible squad changes, with the three players identified by Owen facing an uncertain future. January transfers are already being discussed, with the coach considering moves to offload underperformers and bring in fresh talent to rejuvenate the squad.
Owen concluded his fiery remarks by reminding everyone of the club’s uncompromising standards, stating that Manchester United does not tolerate mediocrity. His comments have amplified the demand for a significant overhaul, and the coming weeks could be decisive for the players in question. With the January transfer window approaching, all eyes are on Amorim’s next move and whether these players can redeem themselves or face an exit from Old Trafford.
