**“HE SHOULD NEVER HAVE STARTED!” – Man United Captain LASHES OUT at Amorim Following SHOCKING EFL CUP Exit vs Grimsby 😱🔥**

 

**BREAKING:** Manchester United have been knocked out of the EFL Cup in the second round, experiencing one of the club’s most humiliating defeats in years. After a tense 2-2 draw at Old Trafford, League Two outfit Grimsby Town triumphed 12-11 in an epic penalty shootout that stunned the football world.

 

But beyond the scoreline, it was the reaction from United’s captain that grabbed headlines, as he openly criticized manager Ruben Amorim’s team choices:

 

*“He’s clearly not ready. He should not have been started in a crucial match like this. Well, I don’t blame him, I blame the coach who made this call – and now we are all paying for it.”*

 

The blunt remarks clearly pointed blame at the manager’s door, reflecting the frustrations bubbling within the squad.

That decision quickly unraveled as Grimsby capitalized on United’s disjointed performance and lapses at the back.

 

Although United managed to level the game twice, they never seemed in full control. When the game moved to penalties, tension filled the stadium — and fans watched in disbelief as Grimsby secured a historic victory in one of the longest shootouts Old Trafford has witnessed.
