De Ligt criticised United’s passive play, overreliance on crosses, lack of runs into the box and shortage of urgency in key moments.

Ruben Amorim admitted Manchester United “deserved to lose” after falling 1-0 at home to 10-man Everton, warning his side are nowhere near competing for top spots and confessing he fears a return to the damaging mentality that undermined last season. Despite Idrissa Gueye’s early red card for confronting team-mate Michael Keane, Everton dominated early, struck through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and then defended deep while United wasted 75 percent possession. Amorim said his players lacked intensity, vowed to keep working and insisted he is not walking away.

Freightliner’s pending takeover by CMA CGM complicates talks, prompting United to draft alternative, more traditional stadium designs. Ratcliffe insists redevelopment will modernize Old Trafford and regenerate the area, though fans already branded the original canopy plans “embarrassing” and “circus-like.”
