Manchester United lost 3-1 at home to PSG last night. Although United created the chances to win the game, poor finishing meant that going into matchday six, qualification is uncertain.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has come under a fair bit of criticism for his insistence to play Fred despite the Brazilian picking up a yellow card in the first half. The midfielder looked to be a loose cannon as he picked up a yellow for a silly head butt on Leandro Paredes.

Despite getting away with his violent conduct, Fredโ€™s recklessness pricked the ears of referee Daniele Orsato, who would then go on to give a second yellow to the 27-year-old.

Immediately following Fredโ€™s dismissal, Manchester United fans on Twitter spotted Bruno Fernandes urging the coaching staff to make a change.

Manchester United were chasing the game at that point, shaking things up earlier could have been pivotal to the final result. Paul Pogba eventually replaced Marcus Rashford.

While the video does perhaps show that the Portuguese midfielder was signalling to the bench that Rashford couldnโ€™t continue, it still makes for damning viewing for Solskjaer who is continually criticised for his late substitutions.
