United gets the season they deserve after their ridiculous decision

9:20am, 22 May 2025Football

Despite the poor domestic season, Manchester United had a chance to win the European Championship and qualify for the Champions League, but they failed.

When the final whistle sounded, a banner with "We witnessed everything" hung in the stands of Old Trafford. This team, known as the "worst Manchester United in 51 years", eventually lost 0-1 to rival Tottenham Hotspur, giving the season a shame. More than 14,000 Manchester United fans who were expeditioning to Spain left the game early, leaving behind the most bleak season report card in the club's history.

Four defeats Tottenham Hotspurs set a century of shame

Manchester United defeated Tottenham Hotspur four times this season, and this shameful record in the first 129-year team history has become the last straw that broke the camel's back. Even though opponent Tottenham also experienced the worst league ranking in 15 years, Ang Postkoglu's team used a precise counterattack to tear the Red Devils' defense line. In the 38th minute, Brennan Johnson scored the goal from Pap Saul's cross, making Luke Shaw's slow turn the game the focus of public opinion after the game.

Amorin's tactics were questioned

Portuguese young coach Ruben Amorin's conservative tactics have been criticized. In the final that he had to win, he insisted on using the 3-4-2-1 formation, pressing Garnacho, who was in a hot state, on the bench, and instead activated Mason Mount, who performed in modest performance. This decision directly led to Manchester United's shots on the right side only twice in the game, setting the worst offensive data for the European game this season. It was not until 71 minutes before the adjustment of Garnacho and Zilkize were replaced, and they were criticized by the British media as "slow self-salvation".

Jin Yuan's signings Cheng Xiaotan

club senior management spent 108.5 million pounds to introduce two major strikers, Hoylen and Zilkze, but at a critical moment, Maguire had to play a guest appearance as a center. When Manchester United used a long pass and hoisting tactic at the last moment of the game, the broadcast camera captured the embarrassing scene of fans in the stands covering the face. Bruno Fernandez admitted after the game: "We are not worthy of any trophy. "

Champions League qualification was twice lost

This loss means that Manchester United missed the Champions League for two consecutive years for the first time since 1993, and will completely bid farewell to the European arena next season. What’s more ironic is that due to the financial fairness bill restrictions, even if you win the championship, you cannot qualify for the Champions League. The club's new football director Darren Fletcher looked ashamed throughout the VIP box, and Beckham, who watched the game on the spot, left the field early.

The locker room was full of crisis

Before the game, Garnacho implicated the coach's "mystery operation" on social media. During the game, Casemiro had a fierce dispute with the head coach, and these details exposed the division of the locker room. Although Amorin emphasized after the game that the coach position was "stable", the team reporter revealed that Manchester United executives have begun to contact Portugal Sports midfielder Victor Djekeres.

Legends collectively bombarded

Manchester United legend Roy Keane criticized during his commentary on Sky Sports: "Some players are not worthy of wearing this jersey!" Rio Ferdinand pointed out: "From the chaos of the preseason to the change of coaches in the middle, this ending has been omens. "It is interesting that when Berbatov, who is also a legend of Manchester United and Tottenham, refused to celebrate the championship of the old boss throughout the whole process when he was a commentator.

At this moment, "Glory Glory Man United" that Manchester United fans are most familiar with for a long time in the Athletic Bilbao - unfortunately this time, the singing came from the white camp. When Son Heung-min held the trophy high, the broadcast footage swept over the stupid Manchester United players. The figure of 19-year-old Amad Diallo sitting on the turf became the heartbreaking footnote of this failed season.

Manchester United got the season they deserved.
