Live from Old Trafford, the fallout from Manchester United’s crushing defeat to rivals Manchester City has sparked outrage among pundits and fans alike. Club legend Gary Neville has unleashed a furious rant, placing the blame squarely on head coach Ruben Amorim after what many are calling United’s worst performance of the season.
Neville Doesn’t Hold Back
Speaking after the final whistle, Neville was visibly furious. He said:
“That was unacceptable. I don’t care how new he is to the job—this is Manchester United, and there are no excuses. The players looked lost, the tactics were all over the place, and quite frankly, City toyed with us. If Ruben Amorim doesn’t wake up fast, this will go down as one of the darkest seasons in the club’s history.”
His words echoed the anger of thousands of United fans who left the stadium early in frustration.
City Completely Dominated
From the first minute, Manchester City controlled every aspect of the game. United’s defense was torn apart with ease, while the midfield offered no resistance. The forward line, led by a frustrated captain Bruno Fernandes, barely had a sniff of goal.
Neville highlighted the lack of identity and fight: “Where’s the pride? Where’s the passion? We just rolled over for them. That’s not the Manchester United I know.”
Fans Turn Against Amorim
Social media quickly exploded, with “#AmorimOut” trending within minutes of full-time. Some fans defended the Portuguese coach, saying he needs more time. But many agreed with Neville, insisting that such a humiliating performance in the derby cannot be brushed aside.
What Happens Next?
Manchester United’s season now hangs in the balance. With pressure mounting, Ruben Amorim must find solutions quickly—or risk losing the dressing room and the supporters. The clash against City may only be one game, but its impact could define the rest of the campaign.
For now, Neville’s brutal assessment sums it up best: United have hit rock bottom, and drastic changes are needed—fast.
