“Mourinho Warns Amorim: Drop this player or Face the Sack Like Ten Hag”

Manchester United’s struggles this season have been well-documented, and after yet another disappointing defeat—this time a 1-0 away loss to Tottenham—one club legend has had enough. Former United manager and current Fenerbahçe coach José Mourinho has reportedly sent a strong message to new Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim, warning him about a particular player who, in his words, is a “ticking time bomb” and a destructive force in the dressing room.

The player in question? Alejandro Garnacho.

Mourinho’s message was as blunt as it gets: “He got Erik ten Hag sacked, and he’ll get you sacked as well. He’s a ticking time bomb waiting to explode anytime soon. He ruined Erik ten Hag’s career, and he will ruin yours too. Keep starting him, and you will find yourself out before the season ends.”

For many Manchester United fans, this is a sentiment they have been echoing for months now. Garnacho, once hailed as one of the brightest prospects at the club, has seen his reputation take a dramatic turn for the worse. The Argentine winger’s performances on the pitch have been inconsistent, but it’s his attitude and reported clashes behind the scenes that have truly raised alarm bells.

Ten Hag, who was sacked earlier this year after a disappointing campaign, reportedly struggled to control the dressing room, and Garnacho was at the heart of some of the biggest controversies. From publicly disagreeing with his manager to social media outbursts and training ground bust-ups, the 20-year-old has been accused of being a disruptive influence rather than a positive force for the team.

Now, with a new coach in charge, many expected a fresh start, but Mourinho’s words serve as a dire warning: history could repeat itself. Amorim, who has just taken the reins at Old Trafford, is under immense pressure to turn things around. If he doesn’t, he could find himself out the door just as quickly as Ten Hag. And according to Mourinho, backing Garnacho could be a decision that seals his fate.

Fans have also been voicing their concerns on social media. Many are calling for the young winger to be dropped before he causes irreparable damage to the club’s season. “Finally, someone said it out loud!! GET THIS PLAYER OUT OF THE SQUAD before it’s too late!!” wrote one frustrated supporter. Others have pointed to his lack of discipline, questioning whether he truly has the mentality to succeed at a club of Manchester United’s stature.

For Garnacho, this marks a turning point in his career. Will he prove his doubters wrong and show that he can be a team player, or will he continue down a path that could see him become yet another talented youngster who failed to live up to his potential?

As for Amorim, he faces a crucial decision. Mourinho’s warning is clear—ignore it at your own risk. With Manchester United already struggling for consistency, the last thing they need is a divisive figure causing further turmoil. If Garnacho doesn’t shape up soon, he could find himself on the sidelines, or worse—out of the club entirely.
