After Manchester United’s recent underwhelming performance, Alejandro Garnacho has become a focal point of discussions following the game against Bournemouth on Saturday.
Garnacho’s substitution at halftime by manager Erik ten Hag took many fans by surprise.
In response, Garnacho posted a cryptic message on Instagram, suggesting his dissatisfaction with the decision.
Moreover, activity on Garnacho’s official X account showed that he had ‘liked’ tweets that criticized the manager’s post-match remarks.
This incident further intensifies the existing tension around Ten Hag, who has faced several disputes since taking charge in 2022.
Ten Hag has previously swiftly resolved public disagreements, as seen with Jadon Sancho’s fallout resulting in the player’s omission from the team.
Given this situation, there’s concern about Garnacho’s advisors, and it’s likely to spark further controversy following the game.
Ten Hag is set to speak to the media before next weekend’s FA Cup semi-final, and it’s hoped that the tensions will have eased by then.
