One thing that struck me last night when he went off, he didn't applaud the fans, again.
He has history for petulance and is a very selfish player, I hope we sell him in summer.
There's no real doubting that... whether he realises it is another question entirely.
Same here. When a siege mentality is called for, Garnacho isn’t exactly the first name that springs to mindI wasn't at all fussed when he was substituted. I don't understand why it was such a shocking decision by Amorim. If he's moved on in the summer, we may go for Cunha.
I've watched him since the FA Youth Cup, he was exciting then and head and shoulders above the other players. He's come into this absolutely horrible United side and has been one of the better players. He has frightening potential but that's all it is currently. His trajectory has unfortuately levelled out a bit this season but my opinion is he is still extremely gifted and could become one of the best in the world.There's plenty of doubting that!
He doesn't have great pace or acceleration, which is often a necessity for forward players, and he doesn't have the ability on the ball or intelligence in his play to make up for it.
Bar a few purple patches, his ceiling is as a dangerous and unpredictable impact substitute for a top level club.
Surely he’s a goner this summer.

Eh, even before going in to the attitude discussion, he's just not very good. Somehow people have convinced themselves he has world class potential and their love for any academy player just blinds them. Only having good off the ball movement doesn't make you a player with world class potential. There's other facets to the game which he absolutely sucks at.
True. Hes no Ronaldo, or Giggs and as you say should only now be starting from the bench, if we were still a successful team.In a normal world, that's exactly the role a 20-year old should have at Manchester United for the most part.
I watched the video and didnt see your commment and was going to say the same. Thats the right way to enamour you to the fansOne thing that struck me last night when he went off, he didn't applaud the fans, again.

Cunha. Think he can be gotten for around £60 million and is better by far. A proper No 10Answers on a postage stamp as to who is available and is better than Garnacho for £60 million assuming that’s we got for him. The important part, being better.
Amad have all been massively overhyped
Nope. Metrics bare out that Amad has played well. Hype for him is deserved.
An English club doing a lot better than United in the league, and an Italian team fighting for the title.He's just not that good.
He stands out in a squad full of dross but he'd struggle to even make the bench at a Liverpool or Real Madrid and he wouldn't start for teams like Brighton or Bournemouth.
Him, Mainoo and Amad have all been massively overhyped because they've been chinks of light in a very dark time.
It's quite telling that the only clubs that showed an interest in him in January were a club that will buy almost anyone and an Italian league club. I think he'd do well for Napoli as the Italian League is about his level.
I'm glad someone else sees it. We're supposed to be so impressed by his goals for his age but he's playing for the worst United team in decades would he even see the field this much if he played for a better team? That and he shoots every time he touches the ball.He's just not that good.

NonsenseGiven the fact that Garnacho has a poor attitude, is selfish, more often than not chooses the wrong option, and isn’t a particularly good finisher or passer, I don’t think that feat is as hard as you suggest.
There are plenty. Point isn't about getting a better player but rather selling one of our own who has huge potential.Answers on a postage stamp as to who is available and is better than Garnacho for £60 million assuming that’s we got for him. The important part, being better.
Nonsense
Even now, you're overrating his potential. There are far, far better young players in his age group. His technique isn't even all that.I've watched him since the FA Youth Cup, he was exciting then and head and shoulders above the other players. He's come into this absolutely horrible United side and has been one of the better players. He has frightening potential but that's all it is currently.

Why do you think it's nonsense?Nonsense
There's not a huge amount that's correct in this paragraph.Given the fact that Garnacho has a poor attitude, is selfish, more often than not chooses the wrong option, and isn’t a particularly good finisher or passer, I don’t think that feat is as hard as you suggest.
No, because people have agendas, love the drama and have made up their minds.Not going to back read but has news filtered through here that he signalled to the bench that he was going down the tunnel to change his shirt? I know we have a hate boner for everyone right now.
I haven't really posted about it or followed the story much (not being on Twitter, Instagram, etc).Not going to back read but has news filtered through here that he signalled to the bench that he was going down the tunnel to change his shirt? I know we have a hate boner for everyone right now.

Did he reappear to sit on the bench for the second half? If so, that certainly suggests it wasn't a strop and he was just changing his wet shirt. If not, that needs further explaining why he didn't reappear with a dry shirt.
Having just looked up Amorim's quote, he seemed to suggest he'd speak with Garnacho about it after the game. Which seems strange if he could have just said: 'Nothing to it. He was just changing his wet shirt and sat on the bench all the second half supporting the team'. His response seems to suggest there was maybe more to find out and be explained about the situation, but hopefully not. We desperately can't afford to have another key player falling out with the manager and being disciplined. Our squad is stretched enough as it is.
Do you remember others who made it to highest level at the age of 21 ?
The same moaners will probably be elsewhere saying we should never have let Welbz, Fred, McTom and numerous other players go.Do you remember others who made it to highest level at the age of 21 ?
Ronaldo and Garnacho don't deserve the same levels of patience mate.Ronaldo never would have made it at United in 2025, no patience whatsoever anymore.
I don’t mind a player being wounded about being taken off when there is a fraud upfrontEvery player who gets subbed off is unhappy. But they suck it up and sit with their team mates on the bench. They also don’t make silly posts on social media after the match.
