Manchester United fans were left raging at the club's birthday post for Donny van de Beek ahead of their Premier League match against Burnley.
Van de Beek, who has endured a difficult term at Old Trafford, turns 24 today with his side wishing him a happy birthday on social media.
But United's post has NOT gone down well with supporters who have hit out at the club's birthday message.
Unsurprisingly, the Dutchman was named on the bench for their league clash with Burnley.

Shortly after releasing the starting XI, the Red Devils shared a picture of Van de Beek, accompanied with the caption: "Say hello to the birthday boy!"
However, United's tweet fell on death ears among fans online.
One angrily commented: "You serious? You're letting the birthday boy sit on the bench, with slim prospects of getting a kick. 'Happy' birthday indeed."

A second wrote: "Surely you're taking the p**s."
A third added: "For his birthday give him 20 mins instead of 5 mins please cheers."
A fourth said: "Is this some joke?"
Van de Beek has struggled for game-time this season following his transfer from Ajax.

The talented midfielder has only started two league matches this campaign with the majority of his minutes coming in cup competitions.
