Amorim must upgrade the 4/10 Man Utd mullet who won 0 head-to-head matches

Manchester United qualified for the fourth round FA Cupbeating Arsenal 5-3 on penalties after a 1-1 draw with Mikel Arteta’s side after extra time.

The victory at the Emirates became even more impressive, in the last thirty minutes of the clash and the entire overtime, he played with only ten players after Diog Dalot’s second yellow card.

Bruno Fernandes’ goal put the Red Devils ahead before Gabriel equalized minutes later, with neither side able to find a winner before the spot-kicks began.

Goalkeeper Altay Bayindir saved Martin Odegaard’s penalty in normal time, before also denying Kai Havertz’s effort in the shoot-out, helping the hosts through against the odds.

Reuben Amorim engineered a perfect result after Dalot’s dismissal, but not all players played an important role in the win, failed to impress and were ultimately saved by the backup goalkeeper.

Disappointing performance by Man Utd against Arsenal

Left-back Dalot reappeared in an unnatural role for Noussair Mazraoui on the opposite side.

Even before sending off, the Portuguese did not manage to uproot a single tree, losing five out of six duels he entered, and in doing so he committed four fouls.

While he may not have made any contact for his second yellow, his decision to run into the challenge was ludicrous and simply unacceptable – a lucky escape after being hauled off by the side following their win.

Striker Alejandro Garnacho was handed a start by boss Amor at the Emirates, help registration for Bruno’s second-half goal, but ultimately again didn’t do enough to retain his starting role.

The Argentine played 80 minutes, registering only one attempt on goalwhile also picking up three fouls and failing to complete any of his cross attempts.

The aforementioned pair weren’t the only ones to struggle in north London, with one player saved by the heroics of Bayindir after his lack of impact against the Gunners.

Man United player to be sacked after Arsenal

Attacker Rasmus Hojlund started his fourth consecutive game at the Emirates for United but once again failed to show why he should be the club’s number one striker.

The Danish representative failed to hit the net for the seventh match in a rowfurther emphasizing the need to invest in offensive areas before the end of January.

He was then substituted after 81 minutes, longer than many expected after his lack of performance, and was replaced by fellow striker Joshua Zirkzee who managed to score the winning penalty.

Hojlund endured an evening to forget, operating with only 16 touches balls, losing 100% of the duels in which he entered against Arsenal’s back line.

The 21-year-old was also unable to register a single effort on goal, lacking the impact and focal point Amorim has desperately wanted since his appointment.

As a result of his showing, the striker was rated the game 4/10 Alex Turk of The Express, and only Dalot got a worse match rating than the Dane in the cup triumph.

After such a poor result, Amorim has to drop Hojlund from his starting eleven for the next one Premier League clash against Southampton on Thursday night.

Zirkzee appears to be the only other central option available to him at the moment, further demonstrating the need for the club to support a new manager in the transfer market in the coming weeks.
