There’s nothing anyone can tell me — Ruben Amorim deliberately threw this match!

“There’s nothing anyone can tell me — Ruben Amorim deliberately threw this match! I warned him before the game not to start this particular Man United player because Tottenham play with high intensity, and he can’t cope with that!” 😤 Thierry Henry fumes, blasting one Man United star for being the worst player on the pitch with a shocking 2/10 rating — and it’s NOT Mbeumo! HE WAS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST PLAYER YESTERDAY! 😤

The football world is buzzing after Manchester United’s devastating loss to Tottenham Hotspur — and Thierry Henry has not held back his emotions. The French legend, known for his sharp footballing insight and brutal honesty, launched a scathing attack on one Manchester United player following what he described as “a disgraceful, unprepared, and careless display.”

In his post-match analysis on CBS Sports, Henry could barely contain his frustration, claiming that United boss Ruben Amorim made a “disastrous tactical decision” that completely derailed the team’s performance from the very first whistle.

“There’s nothing anyone can tell me — Ruben Amorim deliberately threw this match!” Henry fumed. “I warned him before the game not to start that player because Tottenham play with relentless intensity. You need energy, discipline, and quick thinking — and that player doesn’t bring any of that. He looked lost!”

While many expected the criticism to be directed at Bryan Mbeumo, who had a quiet night, Henry made it clear that Mbeumo was not the problem. Instead, he targeted another United player — one whose performance, according to Henry, “bordered on unprofessional.”

Reports emerging after the game revealed that Henry was referring to Casemiro, the Brazilian midfielder who appeared sluggish and overwhelmed in the middle of the park. The veteran’s inability to handle Tottenham’s press left massive gaps in United’s midfield, allowing Spurs to dominate possession and dictate the tempo of the match.

Henry continued his tirade, giving the midfielder a shocking 2/10 rating for his display.

“You’re playing against a team that presses high and moves the ball quickly — and yet you start someone who can’t even turn under pressure? It’s like playing with one man less!” Henry exclaimed. “The pace of the game swallowed him whole. Every second ball, every transition — he was nowhere to be found. It was painful to watch.”

Indeed, Tottenham’s midfield trio — led by Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur — completely dismantled United’s central structure. Casemiro, often hailed for his experience and composure, looked a shadow of his former self, misplacing passes, losing duels, and failing to provide cover for his defenders.

Social media erupted during and after the match, with fans echoing Henry’s frustration. Many questioned Amorim’s decision to field Casemiro ahead of the younger and more mobile Kobbie Mainoo, who was left on the bench until late in the second half.

One fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter):

“Casemiro shouldn’t be anywhere near games like this anymore. Tottenham’s energy made him look ten years older.”

Another added:

“Ruben Amorim needs to realize this isn’t the Portuguese league. The Premier League’s pace is brutal. You can’t rely on slow players when teams like Tottenham press like that.”

Henry also highlighted how Amorim’s insistence on building from the back with Casemiro dropping deep was “a tactical suicide.”

“You can’t ask Casemiro to be your playmaker under that kind of pressure. It’s not his game. Amorim got it wrong — completely wrong — and United paid the price.”

Manchester United’s 3–1 defeat has once again raised doubts about their consistency under Amorim. Despite flashes of progress, critics argue that the team still lacks balance and energy in key areas, especially in midfield.

Henry concluded his passionate rant with a warning to the United manager:

“This was a wake-up call. If Amorim wants to survive in this league, he must adapt. You can’t be stubborn and ignore what’s in front of you. Casemiro was the worst player on the pitch, and it cost them the game. Simple as that.”

As the dust settles, Amorim will have serious questions to answer — from the fans, from pundits, and perhaps even from within Old Trafford itself. With crucial fixtures ahead, all eyes will be on whether he sticks with his veterans or finally embraces a more dynamic, youthful midfield setup.

One thing is certain: Thierry Henry’s outburst has reignited the debate about Manchester United’s midfield crisis — and the pressure on Ruben Amorim has never been higher. 🔥
