The Mancunian fans who leave Old Trafford on the hour mark. That is undoubtedly the image of the weekend in England, as the Red Devils lost by a heavy score of 5-0 against their rival Liverpool in this very unbalanced England derby.
A humiliation which is logically the hottest news of the British press on this Monday morning. And there is especially a man who takes the blame: Ole Gunnar Solskjær.
This is hardly surprising, you might say, as the Norwegian has been criticized for a long time by the press and a good part of the fans. But that rout and the football lesson inflicted by the enemies Reds will likely have been the straw that broke the camel's back. Pundits, media and supporters gave it their all.
“It was a horrible day for Manchester United. They were wiped out. It was unacceptable. The next 24 hours are going to be as hot as they've ever been at this club. As soon as they faced a good team, they were ripped to shreds and that told them exactly where they were, " said Gary Neville on Sky Sports, joined by Jamie Carragher: "I think Ole has done some good job, but to face Klopp, Tuchel and Pep Manchester United need a better manager. I'm not comfortable saying someone should be fired, but we're comfortable saying Fred isn't good enough or Scott McTominay isn't good enough so I don't feel not too bad to say that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is not good enough,"
A statement of failure shared by the main concerned.
“It's not easy to say something other than it's the darkest day I've had as the head of these players. I'm in charge, that's all. The staff are brilliant and I choose the way we approach the game and today we have not been clinical enough to move forward," said the former Norwegian striker. The next few hours are likely to be very busy on the Old Trafford side.
