Manchester United fans have gone into meltdown after Andre Onana's double howler against Grimsby, labelling him a disastrous signing for the club.

Grimsby goalkeeper Christy Pym admitted that he is a Manchester United fan and was "half fuming" after Ruben Amorim's side dismal performance in the Carabao Cup defeat. The League Two side delivered a night of pure footballing theatre, dumping the Red Devils out of the Carabao Cup in an extraordinary second-round tie that ended with an 18-minute penalty shootout. They held their nerve, edging United 12-11 on spot-kicks after a 2-2 draw.

Ruben Amorim launched a furious attack on Manchester United players after an embarrassing Carabao Cup exit as the Red Devils boss vowed to fix mounting problems. United’s season lurched into full-blown crisis on Wednesday night as League Two minnows Grimsby edged them 12-11 in penalty shootout. The tie had already descended into chaos before the shootout, with United forced to rescue themselves from two goals down against opponents who cost a fraction of their squad value.

Ruben Amorim’s “unusual” superstitions have been branded “really bizarre”, with the Manchester United manager refusing to watch penalties.

Former Premier League midfielder Danny Murphy has launched a scathing attack on Ruben Amorim and blamed the manager for Manchester United's rapid decline. The ex-Liverpool star has delivered a damning assessment of Amorim, claiming the Portuguese coach’s tactical setup is crippling the club and dragging its midfielders backwards. Murphy, never shy of a strong opinion, claimed Amorim’s obsession with his rigid system has turned Old Trafford into a graveyard for creativity.
