Manchester United soared into the fifth round of the FA Cup with a rampant victory over League One side Tranmere Rovers on Sunday afternoon, and later tonight they will learn their prize.
The Red Devils smashed six goals past their lower league opposition at Prenton Park, but not all of the subsequent reaction was of a positive nature.
It appears that some sections of the travelling support haven’t taken too kindly to the performance of midfielder Andreas Pereira with the 24-year-old coming in for severe criticism on social media.
Here’s what they’ve been saying…
‘Worst player on the pitch’ and ‘absolutely diabolical’ were two phrases used to describe the Pereira’s display while one fan rated it a 1/10.
The attacking midfielder has only directly contributed to eight goals in 66 appearances for the senior side since making his debut in 2015.
Some supporters went on to suggest that the Brazilian wouldn’t even cut it in Tranmere’s team…
‘Atrocious’ and ‘awful’ were two accompanying words when claiming that Pereira wouldn’t even get into the League One outfit’s starting line up as well as suggesting that he should never play for United ever again.
It also led to some asking the club to get rid or even worse, sell up as he was brandished a ‘waste of space.’
According to SofaScore statistics, Pereira lost possession 14 times, conceded two fouls and won just four of 12 ground duels, which is quite the poor return considering the two-tier difference between the teams.
