When Alejandro Garnacho was substituted during the first half of Manchester United’s victory over Ipswich, the supporters jeered head coach Ruben Amorim.

After new acquisition Patrick Dorgu was sent off at Old Trafford, United played more than half of the game with 10 men, but they managed to salvage a much-needed victory over the Tractor Boys.

Matthijs De Ligt and Harry Maguire added goals to a Sam Morsy own goal, and captain Bruno Fernandes set up two of the goals.

After a lackluster showing and a squandered chance to close the gap on Wolves, the visitors are still five points from safety despite two goals from Jaden Philogene.

Amorim made a move in the first half to maintain five defenders on the field after Dorgu was given his marching orders, and Garnacho was the fall guy. Nevertheless, United had to fight for their victory with a man less.

Shortly before halftime, the winger was pulled off and headed straight down the tunnel before making an eye-opening Instagram post.

You’re connecting with [Marcus] Rashford, aren’t you? After the game, Amorim responded to a comment regarding Garnacho’s attitude by saying, “I know, I know.”

What I’m saying is that, coming forward, I will undoubtedly discuss that with Garnacho. Therefore, if you would want, I may discuss that during the upcoming news conference.

When asked why he decided to bench Garnacho, who appeared to be United’s only offensive threat, Amorim responded, “The thinking was we were playing more in the 5-3-1 and I know that is a risk.”

“I thought the team was doing a good job of controlling the game, but then you have to make a substitution and decide who should come out.” I made the decision.

Garnacho had a run-in with Amorim during the Europa League away match against Viktoria Plzen earlier in the season.

According to an exclusive report by Mail Sport, Garnacho’s disapproval of Amorim contributed to his dismissal from the Manchester United team.

When the United manager was giving the Argentina winger instructions on the touchline prior to his appearance against Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League three days prior to the Manchester derby, it was discovered that the player seemed to turn his back on Amorim and leave. As a result, he was dismissed.

Garnacho’s representatives claimed that he was being disrespectful and blamed it on a misunderstanding, but since Amorim arrived, it has remained a stain on his record.

Garnacho’s actions are now being scrutinized once more, days before an FA Cup matchup with Fulham at Old Trafford.

Rashford, on the other hand, was let go due to concerns about his training efforts. He then left the team and spent the rest of the season on loan at Aston Villa.

On social media, supporters questioned the decision to remove Garnacho. One commenter on X said: I’m beginning to believe that Amorim is inexperienced. I humbly ask for your forgiveness.

‘Don’t know whether I would have taken off Garnacho,’ another person wrote.
