"He should stop":

United fans want a replacement in the XI - not Bruno

Man United created a performance nightmare in their 0-7 loss to Liverpool.



It was the kind of performance where almost every player had his worst game of the season by long distances.


After witnessing this chaotic performance, it is understandable that fans are furious with the players for letting that happen.


However, the majority of fans seem to agree that Diogo Dalot needs to be benched for the time being.



They want Aaron Wan-Bissaka to play more often and believe he can bring more stability to the attack. Here's how fans reacted.

Bobby Brown:

"Nothing breaks my heart more than seeing Dalot on the pitch and Wan Bissaka on the bench... it's crazy."


Benjamin Clark:

"Dalot's slight advantage over AWB is not enough to deal with his terrible defense."


Efe Nosa:

"How is Rashford number 5? He deserves to be number 2. All defenders are zeros." Bruno is 7 years old, Dalot should be arrested."


ShaiOmolomo:

"ETH's love for Dalot against Wan Bissaka jeopardized tonight's defense."


Monastery:

"Exactly what I mean, how can Dalot start before Wan Bissaka?"
