Man Utd fans rage ‘this is the FINAL straw’ as Ten Hag makes controversial sub during Copenhagen clash
MANCHESTER UNITED fans have been left raging after Erik ten Hag took Sofyan Amrabat off on Tuesday evening.
The Red Devils were struggling to break down Copenhagen in their must-win Champions League clash at Old Trafford.

And manager Ten Hag, 53, heaped even more pressure on himself when he replaced new midfielder Amrabat with Christian Eriksen at half-time.
Reacting on social media, one person said: “What Tf is that substitution why is amrabat taken off over McTominay.”
Another added: “Taking off Amrabat is the last straw imo. This game’s gone.”
While a third replied: “Amrabat was literally the only one who looked fine.”
Amrabat has filled in at left-back since arriving at the club due to an injury crisis which has seen Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia and Sergio Reguilon all sidelined.
But the return of Reguilon against Copenhagen saw Amrabat slot into midfield alongside Bruno Fernandes and Scott McTominay.
However, Ten Hag was clearly unimpressed by what he had seen from the Moroccan as he hauled him off at the break.
It comes after a disappointing start to the campaign for Man Utd.
