The unexpected decision made by manager Erik ten Hag to replace Garnacho after only forty-five minutes of play caused numerous supporters to raise their eyebrows.
The cryptic post that Garnacho made on Instagram gave the impression that he was unhappy, and his behavior on social media, in particular his liking of tweets that were critical of the manager’s comments, added gasoline to the fire of suspicion about him.
Ten Hag, who has been at the leadership of the organization since 2022, has been involved in his fair share of problems, and this episode increases the strain that already exists around him.
Previously, the manager has rapidly dealt previous public issues, like as the disagreement that occurred between Jadon Sancho and Ten Hag, which resulted in Sancho being excluded from the squad.
While it is reasonable to wish for Garnacho to have more effective direction, it is inevitable that this circumstance will give rise to debate in the aftermath of the match.
Ten Hag is going to give a press conference in advance of the FA Cup semi-final that will take place the following weekend, and he is optimistic that emotions will have subsided by that time.
