Manchester United supporters send Scott McTominay message to board after Arsenal defeat

January 22, 2023 at 6:56 pm GMT

The Manchester United faithful have flooded to social media on Sunday evening, to make their feelings regarding midfield star Scott McTominay crystal clear.

McTominay, of course, was afforded his latest starting berth a short time ago.

With midfield standout Casemiro unavailable for selection owing to suspension, the Scot was surprisingly chosen over Fred to join Christian Eriksen in Man United’s midfield for a trip to Premier League table-toppers Arsenal.

Across the 90 minutes, though, McTominay struggled in efforts to prove himself worthy of the faith of boss Erik ten Hag.

Drowned out by Arsenal’s relentless nature both in and out of possession, the 26-year-old found himself reduced to something of a passenger en route to an eventual 3-2 defeat.

And, as alluded to above, the United faithful, in turn, have since gone on to make their feelings regarding McTominay’s place at the club very much known.

Taking to Twitter in their absolute droves, those of a Red Devils persuasion have sent a message to the powers that be at Old Trafford, voicing the collective opinion that the Scottish international is simply not of the level required for a club with sights set on a return to the very top of the European game:

I hope that’s the last game I ever see McTominay start for Manchester United.

Please god let this be McTominay's last season at United. Poor poor player.

If we were a serious club. We'd sell mctominay long time ago.

Hopefully this is McTominay’s last season at United. 26 years of age, he’s not going to get any better and isn’t cut out to play or even rotate in a title winning side.

I'm sorry but Scott McTominay shouldn't be a Man United player

I wish him well at his next club

Scott McTominay is so out of depth at United. Not that it wasn't clear before, but surely now it shouldn't be a debate. There's no room for him if we want to be a top team,even as backup. The drop in quality from Casemiro to Scott is insane. Hes been here for years, 0 improvement
