Man United made an inspired second-half comeback to take a 2-1 lead against Liverpool before ultimately playing out a draw.
The Red Devils lost their composure towards the end, conceding a cheap penalty and allowing the visitors to go away with a point after the 2-2 draw.
Some Man United fans feel that Erik ten Hag’s decision to bring on Sofyan Amrabat to replace Alejandro Garnacho inevitably lowered the Rd Devils’ winning chances.
The midfielder had a disappointing late cameo, failing to add defensive sturdiness and adding no attacking threat at all. Here are how some fans reacted to his substitution.
Charmeese: “Ten Hag bringing on Mount and Amrabat was when we lost the momentum. Again, he made a terrible call.”
Yan1Ted: “Ten Hag is an absolute f****** coward, as soon as Amrabat came on I knew it was curtains.”
ManUtdNews: “Does ten Hag ever make subs with any actual plan or does he just throw stuff at the wall & see what sticks? Antony for Rashford was inforced, that’s fine but Amrabat for Garnacho ruined our shape & took away all threat on the counter. Until then he & Hojlund were a threat!”
MUFC_Dan87: “Ten Hag’s subs always deprive us of an attacking outlet. Replacing Garnacho with Amrabat very nearly backfired. I get he’s tired, but you can’t hold onto a lead by camping on the edge of the box for 20 minutes.”
RyanFromTheSqure: “Amrabat hasn’t been good enough all year to the point Ten Hag wouldn’t play him. Why is he out there now?”
