‘That is so disrespectful’ say fans as Alejandro Garnacho snaps back in altercation with Man Utd fan
ALEJANDRO GARNACHO was involved in an altercation with a fan before Manchester United’s Europa League clash with PAOK.
The 20-year-old was named in the starting XI for the clash by interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy, marking the third game in a row he has started under the Dutchman.
However, while greeting fans outside of Old Trafford before the game, the Argentine was involved in a disagreement with one fan.
Garnacho generated criticism for his performance in the 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Sunday.
And one fan saw fit to voice that opinion as Garnacho interacted with fans.
The fan could be heard saying: “Garnacho, you’ve got to pass better today, yeah please?
“Pass better today, score a goal, and work on your first touch as well.”
After signing his autograph for another fan, he was then seen turning to the fan and saying: “Why are you not playing?”
He then walked away and towards the entrance of the ground.
Reacting to the clip on social media, fans did not agree with the decision to voice their opinion there and then.

One fan said: “That’s rude from the fan.”
A second said: “This is so disrespectful to Garnacho.”
A third added: “Idc (I don’t care) if you like someone or not sometimes you gotta show some respect, embarrassing.”
Another said: “Nah this is too far.”
Garnacho has six goals and four assists in all competitions from 16 games this season, making him the team’s top scorer.
He is one of six outfield United players to have played more than 1,000 minutes so far this season.
