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. Unitedâs 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.
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 hinted that Rasmus Hojlund might feature for Manchester United against Grimsby Town in the Carabao Cup in midweek, despite being linked with a move back to Italy. Hojlund, who fell out of favour at Old Trafford, has attracted interest from Serie A champions Napoli, who are willing to sign the Danish forward on loan with an option to buy.
Former Manchester United assistant Rene Meulensteen has dropped a stinging verdict on Matthijs de Ligt, claiming the Dutch centre-half looks too "heavy". Meulensteen, who worked under Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford, believes De Ligt must urgently rediscover his sharpness if he is to cement himself as the defensive rock United so desperately need.
Tyson Fury has admitted that he's given up on Manchester United amid a "sh*t" period for the club that has been going on for years. Once a proud and vocal supporter of the Red Devils, the former two-time heavyweight boxing champion now insists heâd rather spend his time at the racetrack than endure Unitedâs misery.
Alex Iwobi pointed out the key areas in the Manchester United team that Fulham exploited to hold the Red Devils to a 1-1 draw in their Premier League clash on Sunday. The Cottagers came back from behind at home to snatch a point away from Ruben Amorim's side, who are yet to register a win in the 2025-26 Premier League campaign after the first two matches.
