BREAKING NEWS: live from Old Trafford, “He Has no future at the club again. We have giving him enough time. We need a top Manager top handle this players”. Manchester United sacks Erik ten Hag just this afternoon after they the embarrassing loss at Old Trafford against Tottenham.

Manchester United fans have expressed their “disgust” over a shocking defensive lapse by one of their own players following new footage from the team’s 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. The loss, which took place at Old Trafford on Sunday, was yet another blow for Erik ten Hag’s side. Goals from Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke sealed the Red Devils’ fate, and to make matters worse, captain Bruno Fernandes was sent off in the second half for a foul on James Maddison, leaving United to play with 10 men.

However, it was the first goal, scored by Johnson, that particularly enraged United supporters. The goal was a repeat of a defensive breakdown that had occurred just days earlier in their 1-1 draw against FC Twente in the Europa League. As the play developed, Spurs defender Micky van de Ven made a run through the midfield, and Johnson was initially tracked by United’s left-back, Diogo Dalot, as he approached the penalty area. But upon reaching the 18-yard box, Dalot inexplicably slowed his pace, allowing Johnson to get in a free tap-in past goalkeeper Andre Onana.

The footage showing Dalot’s lack of urgency quickly went viral on social media, with fans expressing their outrage. One supporter tweeted: “I love you Dalot, but this is unacceptable. He can see his man, and he has the pace to close him down easily. So what was he doing here?” Another fan shared their frustration, writing: “I need an explanation from Dalot. If my 10-year-old didn’t follow his runner, I’d be concerned about him.”

The criticism didn’t stop there. A third fan compared Dalot’s defending to that of Bayern Munich’s Noussair Mazraoui, pointing out that while Mazraoui consistently tracks his man, Dalot allowed his runner to get away. “That could’ve been prevented,” the fan remarked. Another supporter echoed similar disbelief, saying, “For someone as fast as Dalot, this is unbelievable. He can see Johnson and knows the cross is coming in. I don’t understand what he’s doing.”

The anger intensified as fans viewed the entire clip, with one venting: “This is blatant. I knew Dalot was at fault, but seeing the full clip is just disgusting.”

Dalot’s lack of defensive awareness and the apparent failure to track his man left fans frustrated, especially given the pace and ability he has shown in other matches. Many supporters feel that this lapse highlights a broader defensive issue within the squad, particularly during crucial moments of the game. For many, it’s not just about one mistake, but about a recurring issue of inconsistency and lack of discipline that is costing Manchester United dearly.
