Manchester United fans’ reaction to Manuel Ugarte’s performance spoke volumes after Ruben Amorim’s men lost to West Ham in their Premier League encounter at Old Trafford.
West Ham defeated Manchester United 2-0 on Sunday afternoon and the Hammers climbed above Tottenham and the Red Devils in the Premier League table
United’s setback against West Ham has seen Ruben Amorim’s side fall from 15th place to 16th place in the Premier League table with only two league matches left.
Tottenham were also in action on Sunday and Spurs suffered a 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace at home, with Ange Postecoglou’s men only one point behind United.
United fans on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, insisted that Ugarte should not start the 2025 Europa League final against Tottenham.
One X user said: “Absolutely. Bruno and Casemiro are a better CM partnership. Ugarte just goes short, wide and back. He’s not fast or mobile enough for this league.”
While a second argued: “I’ve always liked Ugarte, but that was just appalling from him. Too often gets caught out in the Prem. I’d play Casemiro with Bruno in Europa final, with Amad [Diallo] and Garna [Alejandro Garnacho] as the [No] 10s.”
Another United fan suggested: “I wouldn’t play Ugarte in the final. Put Casemiro [and] Bruno [as] the deep [two midfielders]. Then [Mason] Mount and Garnacho as the two No 10s. Ugarte is so bad, man.”
“Ugarte and Fernandes showcasing why Casemiro [is] so vital for [the] final. And Ugarte [is] in danger of losing his spot,” a fourth tweeted.
Somebody else commented: “At least that SHOULD [sic] mean Ugarte doesn’t start for the final. Bruno-Case pivot with Mount in the [No] 10 seems likely.”
“If Amorim starts Ugarte in the final, then what inevitably happens is on him,” a sixth claimed.
And a seventh Red Devils supporter simply wrote: “Ugarte cannot start that final.”
“Ugarte has no business in that final,” someone else tweeted
