Manchester United supporters have expressed their frustration following a 3-0 defeat to Liverpool, with significant criticism directed at Casemiro and Marcus Rashford.
After a narrow loss to Brighton the previous week, United hoped for a rebound but faced a severe defeat during Arne Slot’s debut at Old Trafford. Luis Diaz scored twice in the first half with assists from Mo Salah, who later added another goal.
Under Erik ten Hag, United continues to struggle with persistent issues, causing fans to lose patience early in the season despite some summer additions. Casemiro was notably at fault for the first two goals due to poor decision-making, leading to his substitution at halftime for 20-year-old Toby Collyer. There is growing speculation that new signing Manuel Ugarte may replace Casemiro permanently.
Rashford also faced criticism for his ineffective performance, including a backward pass when in a promising position. His lack of impact, especially compared to his previous goal-scoring form, frustrated fans. The decision to substitute Rashford for Amad Diallo instead of Alejandro Garnacho was met with boos.
The backlash from fans has been severe, with some suggesting that Casemiro’s performance was among the worst of his career and even proposing his retirement. Rashford’s performance and substitution also drew significant negative reaction from the crowd.
