Live from Old Trafford: Manchester United’s humiliating loss to rivals Manchester City has ignited fury among both pundits and supporters. Club legend Gary Neville launched a scathing tirade, pinning the blame firmly on head coach Ruben Amorim after what many are calling the team’s lowest point this season.
Neville’s Explosive Reaction
Speaking after the match, Neville didn’t hold back his anger:
“That was disgraceful. I don’t care how new he is—this is Manchester United, and excuses don’t cut it. The players looked clueless, the tactics were a mess, and City toyed with us. If Ruben Amorim doesn’t snap out of it quickly, this will be remembered as one of the darkest seasons in our history.”
His frustration echoed that of thousands of United fans who left the ground before the final whistle.
City in Total Control
From kick-off, City dictated the game. United’s defense collapsed time and again, the midfield offered no resistance, and up front, captain Bruno Fernandes and his teammates barely threatened the goal.
Neville slammed the lack of spirit: “Where’s the fight? Where’s the passion? We just rolled over. That’s not the Manchester United I grew up with.”
Fans Losing Patience with Amorim
Online backlash was immediate, with “#AmorimOut” trending shortly after the final whistle. While some defended the Portuguese manager, arguing he deserves more time, many sided with Neville—insisting that such an embarrassing derby defeat is unacceptable.
What Comes Next?
United’s campaign is now at a crossroads. Amorim must quickly find answers or risk losing both his squad and the supporters. The derby might be only one fixture, but its repercussions could shape the rest of the season.
For now, Neville’s harsh words capture the mood best: United have sunk to rock bottom, and only drastic change can turn things around.
