MANCHESTER UNITED head coach Ruben Amorim berated his own players after they crashed out of the Carabao Cup at the hands of Grimsby Town.
The Red Devils found themselves 2-0 down at Blundell Park following goals from Charles Vernam and Tyrell Warren.

Bryan Mbeumo and Harry Maguire both scored late in the match to draw level, but United went on to lose 12-11 on penalties following a dramatic shootout.
Amorim cut a frustrated figure throughout and did not hold back in his assessment of the match at full-time.
He told Sky Sports: “In the end, it doesn’t matter if we recover or not, it’s the signs the team gave during the game, the beginning of the game.
“I think the best team won, the only team that was on the pitch.
“The best players lose because one team can win against any group of players, and I think the team and the players spoke really loud today, so that’s it. We lost, the best team won.”
Asked what he meant by his comments, Amorim continued: “I think it’s really clear what they spoke, so let’s move on from this day and I think it was clear for everybody what happened today.
“The way we start the game without any intensity, all the idea of the pressure, we were completely lost and that’s why I think they spoke really loud.”
