'Little weakling' - Alejandro Garnacho sent brutal message after showing frustration with Europa League final role in heartbreaking Manchester United defeat

United lost the Europa League final 1-0 to Tottenham on Wednesday night. Following the defeat, Alejandro Garnacho's brother and agent took to social media to voice their displeasure at the Argentinian winger's limited playing time. Garnacho himself also expressed his frustration in an interview with Argentinian TV, hinting at uncertainty about his future.

The loss compounds a disappointing season for United, leaving fans disillusioned and questioning the direction of the club. Garnacho's reaction is seen as symptomatic of a wider culture problem at Old Trafford, where players are perceived to be prioritising individual concerns over the team. This perceived lack of discipline and collective spirit has drawn criticism from pundits like Simon Jordan, who believes it reflects poorly on both the manager and the club's leadership.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Jordan said: "You embolden these little runts to think they've got a sense of entitlement to say these things.

"The agent is an irrelevance irrespective of whether he's his brother or not. And United as they are have brought this upon themselves.

"We've seen this player before. Pack it in. It's nonsense, you little weakling. Get on with bringing a performance every week.

"This is the club that you've created, United. Now, this is the club that you've got to get hold of. This is what your manager's got to get hold of.

"Get hold of this dressing room, get hold of his group of players and start to get them to operate at a level that's vaguely resembling what Manchester United once were before. This is the culture that you've allowed to generate and there you are. So you reap what you sow."

Garnacho will head off for his summer break after the final Premier League weekend of the season and contemplate his future at United. Ruben Amorim will need to address the culture within the dressing room to ensure improved performances next season. Tottenham, meanwhile, will be celebrating their Europa League victory, with a trophy parade planned through north London.
