Man United fan breaks down in tears as he laments 'toxic' club

The Red Devils are 'absolutely toxic' at present according to United fan Dave, who held back tears on talkSPORT as he reacted to the club's latest defeat.

Ruben Amorim's side were beaten 1-0 by Tottenham on Sunday afternoon.

James Maddison's first half strike proved to be the difference in north London.

United struggled to mount a comeback, with Amorim having been forced to name eight teenagers on the substitutes bench.

The defeat leaves his side 15th in the Premier League, just three places above the relegation zone.

Dave did not mince his words as he called in to The Final Word following the final whistle.

He explained: "Well, I think I'll hit the nail on the head. I said that there was two poor sides today. Yeah two very poor sides now.

"Listen Ruben Amorim is the right man for Manchester United, but the man needs backing. He's not got any of these players in there other than the fullback [Patrick Dorgu] he's brought in.

"He's got no players that he's had in there. I'd say something now that team is under pressure through Ratcliffe and these cronies.

"We need to get rid of them. If every Manchester United fan knows that these people need to get out of our club. Ratcliffe is b*****ed.

"I'm so upset at the moment about our club. Ratcliffe needs to go. Qatar needs to come in and offer the Glazers another deal to get rid of everything Ratcliffe, what 29 per cent isn't he?"

Ratcliffe bought a minority stake in the club from the Glazer family in February 2024, with his INEOS group taking over football operations at Old Trafford.

The British billionaire has since overseen hundreds of redundancies in a bid to cut costs for the club.

However, results on the pitch have not changed even after sacking Erik ten Hag in October.

Dave continued to call for change at the club as he became increasingly emotional about the situation, almost breaking down in tears.

He continued: "What they need to do is to sort the debt out and to sort everything around that club.

"Because at the moment that club is toxic. It's absolutely toxic and it needs people who love that club to sort that club out because we love that club.

"And I'm nearly brought to tears now. I'm upset because I've always loved that club.

"My dad brought me up through that club in 1974 and that club means the absolute world to me and at the moment everything is going wrong.

"And we need that club to be back to where it should be the Busby Babes and everything we need that club to be."

With United already out of both domestic cups, the Europa League remains their only hope of silverware and European qualification this season.
