Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United did not stop his true feelings after the final loss of the Europa League against Tottenham, and it is not the first time he was bothered in Old Trafford
If Alejandro Garnacho has to apologize for his abrupt comments about Ruben Amorim's team selection, this is not the first time that the Manchester United Forward has been in this position. Garnacho, 20, was clearly furious on Amorim after the Europa League final.
The Argentinian winger was mentioned on the couch for the 1-0 defeat against Tottenham Hotspur in Bilbao. Amorim has presented the graduate of the United Academy for Mason Mount, but not until the 71st minute.
The South American was apparently not satisfied with the amount of time he was given to make an impact, because after the game he saved the United head coach because he had left him out of the starting XI. He also described the campaign as “S ***”.
However, it is not the first time that Garnacho criticized his manager. He was previously reprimanded by Erik ten Hag, after he was caught on a social media post that criticized the Dutchman. Garnacho 'found a tweet' on X-previously known as Twitter-Die ten Hag had planned for filling the rest during the rest during the 2-2 of United with Bournemouth last season.
When he was asked later, Ten Hag pulled a line under the situation and said, “Alejandro is a young player, he has to learn a lot. He apologized for it and then we continue.”
A little more than a year later, Garnacho was in the headlines because he re -criticized his boss. Instead of liking a message, the 20-year-old after the final in Bilbao spoke with the media and said: “Until the final I played every round that the team helped, and today I play 20 minutes, I don't know.
“The final will affect [my decision] But the entire season, the situation of the club. I'm going to try to enjoy the summer and see what happens next. “
Even worse, his brother Roberto supported his brother or sister on social media in an excavation at Amorim. He went to Instagram and wrote: “Working like no one else, who helped each round, coming from two goals in the last two finals, just to stand on the field for 19 minutes and to be thrown under the bus. Wowe hahahahahaha.”
It is still to be seen whether Amorim responds to Garnacho's remarks and that of his brother, but he will probably be questioned on Friday in his press conference. United host Aston Villa in Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday – their last game of the campaign.
Amorim, however, defended his decision to sniff the Argentinian to start with in Bilbao and instead to use Mount.
The Portuguese boss even had an excavation at Garnacho himself when he said: “How often did we have this conversation, and it was the opposite? Some players come in, such as Mason Mount, against Bilbao and changed the game.
“So now it's easy to say. Who missed the big chance in the first half against Bilbao? Yes [Garnacho]. Of course it is now easy for us to talk about many views. “
Garnacho was strongly connected to movements to Napoli and Chelsea in January, but neither of them came out. His future can now depend on Amorim's response to his public comments and the post of his brother, with a sale still very possible in the summer, especially after United had made every player available for the right price outside their harmful defeat against tracks.
