Manchester United’s woes continue after yet another disappointing 1-0 defeat to Tottenham. With an injury crisis, poor decision-making, and underperforming players, things are only going from bad to worse at Old Trafford.
Injuries Worsening United’s Struggles
United has been plagued with injuries, losing key players like Lisandro Martínez and Matthijs de Ligt. Now, Amad Diallo, one of the club’s brightest young talents, is out for the rest of the season. With an already struggling squad, this only adds to their problems.
Garnacho’s Selfish Play Hurting the Team
Alejandro Garnacho’s decision-making has been frustrating. The 20-year-old winger shows promise but refuses to pass the ball at crucial moments. In the game against Tottenham, new left-wing back Patrick Dorgu made several dangerous runs, yet Garnacho ignored him repeatedly. A player at this level should know better.
Anorim’s Questionable Substitutions
Another baffling decision was Anorim giving Chido Obi Martin just three minutes for his debut. With United chasing the game at 1-0 down, making a key substitution in stoppage time was pointless. A bold change earlier could have made a difference, but the manager got it all wrong.
Why Do Players Perform Better After Leaving United?
The biggest question remains: why do players suddenly shine after leaving United? Antony, who struggled at Old Trafford, is now balling at Real Betis. Marcus Rashford, once out of form, is now excelling at Aston Villa. It’s not just about players improving elsewhere—it’s about the effort they never put in while at United.
Is Ownership the Real Issue?
United’s situation mirrors Chelsea’s downfall after Roman Abramovich left. Since INEOS took charge, things have only declined. The same thing happened to Chelsea under Todd Boehly, despite spending billions. Are United’s owners the real problem behind this collapse?
*Could United Face Relegation?
It has never been this bad at Manchester United, but at this rate, relegation doesn’t seem impossible. Imagine Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee struggling at United, only to leave and start performing elsewhere. If that happens, it would confirm one thing: either United is cursed, or the ownership is the root of all problems.
What do you think? Is this the worst Manchester United team in history, or is there still hope?
