The Argentinian, taken off at half-time of their 2-2 draw at Bournemouth, liked two messages on X, formerly Twitter, by YouTuber M꧅ark Goldbridge.

One read: “Ten Hag ꦓsubtly blaming🎃 Garnacho in the post match press conference… not a good look throwing a 19 year old under the bus who has actually delivered for you this season. But then again he’s clearly scared of upsetting the bigger earners.”

The other said Garnacho “had a poor first half but taking him off at half time and holding him up as the problem is a joke”ও.

Garnacho swiftly ‘unliked’ both messages – an aꦦction the club believes shows contrition – and a United source told the PA news agency t🌄he matter had been dealt with internally.

In September Jadon Sancho’s pꦬost on X, saying he had been made a “scapegoat” and “I will not allow people saying thin🌸gs that (are) completely untrue” – interpreted as accusing Ten Hag of misrepresenting reasons why the winger was not in the side – led to the 24-year-old being banished from the first team before being loaned to Borussia Dortmund in January.
