Supporters of Premier League giants Manchester United have taken to social media in numbers on Saturday evening, to make their frustrations with one member of Erik ten Hag’s squad clear.
United, of course, are currently locked in action.
Fresh off a trio of defeats either side of the international break, the Red Devils have made the trip to Turf Moor, desperate for a return to winning ways in a Premier League meeting with Burnley.
As things stand late in the first-half in Lancashire, though, the visitors, once more, have struggled.
The two sides remain deadlocked at 0-0, after Jonny Evans saw what looked set to prove a crucial opener ruled out by VAR.
*Update* – Bruno Fernandes has since found the net.

None, though, has been quite as widely targeted as Scott McTominay.
Thrown in from the off once more amid the ongoing injury crisis facing the Red Devils, Scottish international McTominay has failed to step up to the plate in the middle of the park, culminating in nothing short of a ruthless backlash across social media:
Mctominay having an absolute shocker, to the surprise of nobody. One of the most embarrassing sequences yet this season there.

McTominay’s thing was that he always gave everything and worked hard.
You take that away and there’s not a great deal there. #MUFC

Watching McTominay play football is a torture for the eyes.

When you take into consideration how long he’s played, the spot he’s take up, how shit he is etc… there is a very good case for McTominay being our worst ever academy product.

Personally I’d make a 20 min sub, Amrabat on for McTominay

Scott Mctominay is complete garbage. 🗑🤮

It is beyond frustrating to watch Mctominay play for United in 2023. I’ve never seen a player so antipathetic to possession and build up. Even at the end of the half he gets it, instantly stops to go backwards and 4-5 players running forwards drop their heads and stop running. https://t.co/IoqrwrwYgJ
