  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Turkish goalkeeper replaced Andre Onana in United's goal after some costly mistakes in their 2-2 draw against Lyon in the Europa League on Thursday. When the Red Devils were 3-1 down, the 26-year-old's poor clearance was intercepted by Joelinton, and seconds later, Bruno Guimaraes made it 4-1 at St James' Park. That prompted the ire of many United fans on social media following the resounding loss.

    @Cam3Evans wrote on X: "Bayindir’s audition over. Absolutely pathetic performance."

    @ducker7 commented: "Onana got dropped and United still lost an we conceded 4 Goals. We are so sh*t."

    @agostinhozinga put: "Onana at home smiling. Dropped from the squad and we still conceded 4 goals LMAO. Relegation would have felt like a trophy for this united team."

    @Ryanfordyyy tweeted: "Onana isn't good enough but Bayindir isn't the answer..."

    @SmnLlyd5 added: "Maybe just don’t play any goalkeepers."

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Bayindir has impressed on occasion for United this season but on his Premier League debut, the Turk did nothing to lift the gloom around Ruben Amorim's side. Some Red Devils fans clearly believe that they need not one, but two new keepers this summer as neither Onana nor Bayindir appear to be good enough.
