Coming off Manchester United’s hard-fought draw against Chelsea, the fans made their voices be heard loud and clear.
Supporters expressed disappointment with United’s performance, feeling the team created enough chances to have secured all three points.
Much of their frustration was directed towards 20-year-old winger Alejandro Garnacho.
Before United’s Europa league clash with PAOK, the Argentinian was signing autographs for fans when one decided to make a remark that quickly caught attention.

In a viral clip, an alleged fan is heard asking, “Are you going to pass better today? Score a goal and work on your first touch.”
The young winger, justifiably irritated, responded, “why are you not playing man?”
During today’s post-match reference, United star Bruno Fernandes appeared to reference this incident when asked about Garnacho’s subdued celebration after scoring an exhilarating goal.
Garnacho sealed off the game with a beautiful curler to the top right corner in their triumphant 3-0 win against Leicester City.
Fernandes suggested that Garnacho may feel he lost the faith of the fans, potentially due to instances such as the one with the fan.

“It was a good day at work, I have to say. We have a lot of players with big qualities, but people can get too excited after one game and too down after another,” The Portuguese captain explained to BBC Sport.
“Garnacho scored a banger but didn’t celebrate like he should because he thinks he has lost faith from some fans.
“I told him people will always moan but lots of people like you and enjoy what you do.
“I told him to celebrate, it was something special. He is a special player, we have difference makers. They are the ones who win us games.
“We want them to score every game but that isn’t going to happen. The Fantasy managers won’t be happy with you guys taking that goal off me.”
