Manchester United boss, Ruben Amorim has said he will talk with Alejandro Garnacho over his reaction to being substituted in the first half of the Red Devils’ Premier League 3-2 win over Ipswich Town on Wednesday.
Defender Patrick Dorgu was shown a straight red card for a foul on Omari Hutchinson in the 43rd minute of the encounter at Old Trafford.
However, Amorim then opted to substitute Garnacho in a bid to have control of the game after Dorgu’s red card.
The Argentina international headed straight down the tunnel after being replaced by Noussair Mazraoui.
Garnacho hinted at his frustration after the game with a cryptic post on Instagram.
Asked if Garnacho had permission to go directly into the changing room, Amorim said at his post-match interview: “It was cold and wet, maybe.
“The thinking was that we play more in the 5-3-1. I know that is a risk because you are taking the only player now that has one-vs-one pace.
“But I felt the team was okay in controlling the game and then we make the substitution.
“We had to choose someone to go out and we had to think about set-pieces also so that was my choice.”
He added, “What I’m saying is that I’m going to talk, obviously, with Garnacho about that. So I will talk about that, if you want, in the next press conference.”
Goals from Sam Morsy (own-goal ), Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Maguire gave Amorim’s side all three points against Ipswich Town.
