Manchester United drew 0-0 with Sunderland away at the Stadium of Light in the Premier League with a lacklustre performance.

Last weekend the Red Devils excited their fans at Old Trafford in their 3-2 win over Liverpool to confirm their place in the Champions League for next season.

Michael Carrick opted to make several changes to the team that earned three points against Arne Slot’s side.

Two players that came into the side for their trip to face Sunderland struggled, and fans believe that their time is up wearing the red of United.

Supporters of the Red Devils took to social media to let their feelings be known about Joshua Zirkzee and Mason Mount.

It was not a great day for either player, as they both received a yellow card, while the Dutch striker was withdrawn in the 65th minute to be replaced by Patrick Dorgu.

One fan said: “Joshua Zirkzee should be the first player to be sold in the next transfer window.”

While another shared this sentiment, as they wrote: “Zirkzee is a car crash; wow, just accept the first bid.”

A fan simply said: “Zirkzee is really bad.”

Meanwhile, Mount was also the cause of much frustration for Manchester United fans in their draw with Sunderland as he struggled to get up to speed of the game.

One fan said: “Mason Mount and Zirkzee should find new clubs next season.”

Mount and Zirkzee so far off the pace.

Another added: “We have to move on from Mason Mount. He’s got the season, but it’s really not working.”

While one supporter wrote: “I hope Carrick is using this game to show the Board who we don’t need next season. Mason Mount can sod off.”

A suggestion was made by one fan as to why the pair struggled in this game with Sunderland while also providing the solution to get them up to speed.

They said: “Games like this are why reserve team football needs to be brought back just to give guys minutes. Zirkzee and Mount are so off the pace, and it’s hard to blame them because they never play, but if they got minutes with the reserves, then they wouldn’t look so poor.”
