“He Has no future at the club again. We have giving him enough time. We need a top Manager top handle this players”-BREAKING NEWS as Manchester United sacks Erik ten Hag just this afternoon after they the embarrassing loss at Old Trafford against Tottenham.
Manchester United supporters have been left infuriated by one of their own players after fresh footage emerged from their 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. The match, held at Old Trafford, added to United’s growing list of disappointments under manager Erik ten Hag, with goals from Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke contributing to their downfall. To compound the frustration, United was reduced to 10 men for the entire second half after captain Bruno Fernandes was shown a red card for a foul on Spurs’ James Maddison.
What particularly ignited fans’ outrage was the manner in which United conceded the first goal, which resembled a defensive lapse seen in their recent 1-1 draw against FC Twente in the Europa League. The breakdown occurred when Spurs defender Micky van de Ven made a surging run through United’s midfield. As the play unfolded, Johnson advanced toward the penalty box, initially tracked by United left-back Diogo Dalot.
However, despite being in a good position to stop Johnson, Dalot slowed down upon reaching the 18-yard box, allowing Johnson to easily tap the ball past goalkeeper Andre Onana, essentially unchallenged. The clip of Dalot’s casual defending quickly circulated on social media, leaving many fans enraged at his lack of effort.
One fan voiced their frustration on Twitter, writing, “I have always been a supporter of Dalot, but this is simply unacceptable. He had a clear view of Johnson and could have easily closed him down with his speed. What was he thinking?”
Another fan echoed the disappointment, stating, “Dalot needs to explain this. If my 10-year-old failed to track back like that, I’d be seriously worried. How can a professional player let this happen?”
The comparisons continued, with one supporter contrasting Dalot’s defending to Bayern Munich’s Noussair Mazraoui: “Mazraoui constantly checks on his man, but Dalot just lets his runner go. That goal could’ve been avoided if he had paid attention.”
Another fan expressed disbelief at Dalot’s lack of urgency: “For someone as quick as Dalot, this is shocking. He had a full view of Johnson and knew the cross was coming, yet he did nothing. I’m at a loss for words.”
In the most scathing comment, one fan said, “Seeing the full footage makes it even worse. I suspected Dalot was at fault, but this is just disgraceful. How can he let that happen at this level?”
The incident has clearly struck a nerve with Manchester United fans, who are growing increasingly frustrated with the team’s defensive frailties. While the loss to Tottenham was disappointing on multiple fronts, it is Dalot’s moment of hesitation that has become the focal point of fan outrage, with many demanding answers and improvements from the Portuguese full-back.
