Man Utd fans demand Ruben Amorim gets rid of one player for good and they've already identified his replacement

Manchester United fans have urged Ruben Amorim to take action following their post-season game against Hong Kong.

Manchester United fans have urged Ruben Amorim to get rid of one player for good and they've already identified his replacement.

Man United played their second post-season friendly in Asia on Friday following their embarrassing defeat to ASEAN All-Stars.

They came from behind to beat Hong Kong 3-1 as second-half substitute Chido Obi bagged a brilliant brace, with Ayden Heaven grabbing his side's third goal.

Obi replaced Rasmus Hojlund, who failed to make an impression in the first-half.

Hojlund, who has scored just four league goals in 32 games this season, was slammed by Man United fans on social media following his underwhelming performance.

And Man United supporters believe Obi, who has impressed at youth level, should be ahead of Hojlund moving forward.

One X user wrote: "I speak for all Manchester United fans when I say Chido Obi has to be ahead of Rasmus Hojlund in the pecking order moving forward."

A second said: "That was a striker goal. Rasmus Hojlund can learn a thing or two from the kid!"

A third added: "Chido Obi is 10 times better than Hojlund."

Another commented: "Chido Obi >>> Rasmus Hojlund. Snd I’m not even joking..."

Obi, 17, broke into the first-team this season.

He made eight appearances across all competitions. He has yet to score a senior goal for Man United.

Obi set out to score goals and impress Ruben Amorim during Man United's post-season tour of Asia.

And he has done exactly that, having inspired Man United's victory over Hong Kong.

"My aim is to build relationships with other teammates and to hopefully score goals," he said before Friday's game.

"[I want] to have a very good performance and hopefully impress the coach."

Man United are thought to be in the market for a new forward ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.

Several names have been linked with a move to Old Trafford, including Victor Osimhen and Liam Delap, who appears set to join Chelsea.

But Obi could emerge as a legitimate option for Amorim when the new season comes around.
