Michael Owen's analysis of Man Utd's performance against Bodo/Glimt has baffled everyone

Michael Owen's comments about Manchester United after their 3-2 win over Bodo/Glimt has confused fans online.

Manchester United secured their first win under Ruben Amorim on Thursday as the new manager took charge of his first match at Old Trafford in a Europa League clash against Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt.

Although they took the lead in the opening minute of the match, United were forced to retake the lead after visitors hit back, leading to a final score of 3-2.

After the match, former United player Owen took to social media to give his opinion on his side's performance, and his comments have left fans frustrated.

Writing on X immediately after the game, Owen praised United for their win and noted it was the best they have looked in over a decade.

The 44-year-old wrote: "It’s been over 11 years in the making but Man Utd are all of a sudden good to watch again! Improvement required everywhere you look but this is now a team with potential written all over it."

However, fans were quick to disagree with the Ballon d'Or winner, pointing out the level of opposition that they faced in the match and the fact that they drew against Ipswich Town in the Premier League last weekend.

Replying to the post, one fan wrote: "Mate they just scraped past Bodo Glimt. Have a day off."

Another added: "Let's get this straight. This daft punk just said United are good to watch again followed by IMPROVEMENT required everywhere you look Make It make sense."

While one suggested: "Far too soon, and it was average, plus always an initial bump in results when a new gaffer comes on board."

And popular opticians Specsavers jokingly asked: "Got a free half hour tomorrow?"

The result takes United to 12th out of 36 teams in the Europa League as it marks just their second win in the competition having drawn all three of their opening fixtures.

Meanwhile in the Premier League, United are also 12th in the table, having won, drawn and loss four games so far this season, leaving them with a total of 16 points.
