Manchester United fans have hit out at Alejandro Garnacho after noticing he wouldn't pass to one specific teammate during the match against Nottingham Forest.
On Tuesday night, United suffered yet another Premier League loss as an early goal from former player Anthony Elanga secured a 1-0 win for Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
Immediately after the result, United fans hit out at the club over their decision to sell Elanga to their fellow top-flight team for £15million back in 2023.
But now, fans have aimed their anger about the result towards star player Garnacho after they noticed that he refused to pass to one of his teammates on several occasions during the match on Tuesday.

Garnacho has been undergoing a turbulent season at United, particularly since the arrival of new manager Ruben Amorim, who grew frustrated with the winger's behaviour during his first months at Old Trafford.
Across 46 appearances for the Red Devils in all competitions this season, the 20-year-old has scored just nine goals and assisted eight, leading to increased frustrations within the fanbase.
However, on Tuesday, fan's frustrations came to a head as they noticed that the Argentinian international regularly refused to pass to January signing Patrick Dorgu.
Reacting to Garnacho's performance post-match, wrote: "Something I noticed quite a lot, Garnacho never passes to Dorgu."
Another frustrated fan replied: "Which completely goes against Amorim’s system."
One fan backed Garnacho's decision, writing: "To be fair think Dorgu passed more to Forrest players than United players today. He’s usually so good, looked off it today."
While one suggested: "What i’ve noticed that’s more on concerning is that garnacho rarely gets shouted out by his fellow players for not passing and always shooting. It’s very weird, it’s almost as if they’ve been told not to."
In light of Garnacho's poor performances throughout the season, rumours have began to ramp up that he could be sold by United when the transfer window reopens in the summer.
The winger had been heavily linked with both Chelsea and Serie A side Napoli during the winter transfer window, but with Marcus Rashford and Antony both departing on loan, Amorim decided to keep Garnacho until the end of the season.
