Ruben Amorim’s response to Bruno Fernandes’ red card speaks volumes about the ongoing Manchester United crisis.

Ruben Amorim’s reaction to Bruno Fernandes’ red card during Manchester United’s 2-0 defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers highlighted the growing frustrations amid the club’s struggles this season.

United suffered their eighth league defeat at Molineux, with second-half goals from Matheus Cunha and Hwang Hee-chan sealing the result. Cunha’s opener came directly from a corner, marking the second such goal United have conceded in a week. In stoppage time, Wolves capitalized again, with Cunha setting up Hwang for a simple finish past Andre Onana as United overcommitted in attack.

The match’s turning point, however, was Fernandes receiving a second yellow card for a high tackle in the second half. It marked the third time this season the United captain has been sent off, although a previous dismissal against Tottenham was later overturned.

Amorim’s reaction to Fernandes’ dismissal spoke volumes. As Fernandes left the field, Amorim avoided acknowledging his captain, turning away in apparent frustration while issuing tactical instructions to his players.

After the game, Amorim expressed his disappointment when speaking to Amazon Prime: “Yes, of course [he should have been more careful while on a yellow card]. It’s so hard to win games in this league with 11 men, with 10 men it’s even more difficult. So we have to focus on that.”

Fernandes will miss one match due to his suspension, sitting out the home game against Newcastle on December 30, but he will be available for United’s trip to Liverpool on J
