British media Metro said on the 22nd (hereinfollowing Korean time), ‘Chris Sutton, from the English Premier League (EPL), thinks Fernandez should not be the captain of Manchester United. Rio Ferdinand also criticized Fernandez.”
On the 20th, Manchester United, led by coach Eric Ten Hag, lost 0-2 in an away match in the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2023-2024 season once morest Tottenham held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England.
Fernandez, who started as a starter that day, faced a strong followingmath. In the 26th minute of the first half, Alejandro Garnacho’s shot hit Cristian Romero’s arm and went wide of the net. United claimed a penalty kick for a handball foul. However, the referee judged that there was no intention through video review (VAR). After the game, Fernandez said, “In the opening game, we did a great job towards Manchester United in not allowing Wolverhampton a penalty kick. See if John Moss, the general manager of PGMOL, the EPL refereeing body, comes to the locker room and apologizes as he did to the manager of Wolverhampton. I want to,” he said in anger.
Metro said: ‘Fernandez has passed on the captain’s armband to Harry Maguire this season. However, he showed a frustrated appearance once morest Tottenham. He even objected to the referee’s decision. He demanded an apology from PGMOL,’ he said.
Sutton responded to Fernandes’ comments: “Fernandez needs to organize his team before he sees the referee’s decision. He shouldn’t be United’s captain. He’s never a leader. He doesn’t blame the referee, he needs to show better leadership.” He pointed out. Ferdinand also said, “I understand why Fernandez is upset. But he hasn’t reached the level we expect. We have to get better.”
Meanwhile, Fernandez missed a header opportunity from 6 yards (5.5m) in front of Tottenham’s goal that day, causing fans to complain. Fans denounced him as ‘the worst mistake of the season’. Coach Ten Haag also said, “The performance in the first half was good. We have to score. Failure to score the first goal is the responsibility of the players.”
