Manchester United's 1-6 loss to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday at Old Trafford will be talked about even after the end of the season. They might have had the first laugh with a penalty goal in the 29th second, but soon after, it was all Spurs as they found the net continually as they displayed solid defense and skill to nab three points.

Needless to say, the performance came under harsh criticism by fans who took to social media and slammed United for poor performance. For starters, much of the blame was attributed to Ole Gunnar Solskjær. "Not players problem, this is manager fault, he deployed the worst players and stupid tactics," read one of the tweets.


Such was the dominant display by the Spurs without their star acquisition, Gareth Bale, who was still warming the benches. For most Spurs fans, this was quality football. "To think Bale is still yet to play for Tottenham FC, yet they demolished Manchester United like this," a fan wrote.


And clearly, United fans weren't happy as they lashed out at the gameplay. "Not good enough??? This is not just Not good enough. This is pathetic. Utd by Ole managing is nowhere near success. So ashamed," read one of the comments.


Some still felt it was too much blame and this would be an off night. "Just get all the players 100%Focus on the job their supposed to do and we will be fine after Nationals. Hope Maguire is ok from the summer incident and has his head straight now," a fan tweeted.


Lack of players and meager transfer signings were a cause of concern as well. "This club is a joke we need Sancho and a CB.dont give us shit that there's no money.if Everton has we have it," one of the fan tweets read. 



 

For the Spurs, Son Heung-Min had Harry Kane had two goals each while Tanguy Ndombele and Sergei Aurier chipped in with one each. For United, Bruno Fernandes had that one penalty goal and that was pretty much as far as their success on the field went for the day. In addition, a foul that involved Erik Lamela and Martial saw the latter being red-carded. 

"Someone Please Tell Me That @ManUtd Will Appeal Against The Red Card That Was Given To Martial. That Was Criminal By Lamela. 100% Unprofessional @AnthonyMartial @SpursOfficial #MUNTOT #MUFC," wrote one of the United fans.



 

To end with, here's a major slam: "@ManUtd OLE FEARS HIS OWN PLYRS. GOT NO BALLS TO DROP WEAK PLAYERS. GIV HENDERSON A CHANCE. MAGUIRE SIMPLY AINT GUD. POGBA WAS PIECE OF S**T TODAY. WHY BENCH VAN DE BEEK IF U CLAIM HE IS SMART? TEENAGERS DONT WIN TITTLES. MEN LIKE LEWANDOWSKI DO. FIELD MEN NOT KIDS IN ATTACK."
