‘Van de Beek-schandaal en blunder van het jaar’

Donny van de Beek transfereerde in de voorbije zomer voor ongeveer 40 miljoen euro van Ajax naar Manchester United. Bij de Red Devils komt hij echter maar heel mondjesmaat in actie: gisteren zat hij bijvoorbeeld weer negentig minuten lang op de bank.

Oefenmeester Ole Gunnar Solskjaer geeft vooralsnog de voorkeur aan Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba, Scott McTominay en zelfs Fred, en volgens de fans van United heeft Van de Beek de blunder van het jaar gemaakt door voor een overstap naar Old Trafford te kiezen. Had hij écht geen andere opties? Men is in ieder geval van mening dat er op een schandalige manier omgesprongen wordt met de oud-Ajacied.

When Manchester United needed to strengthen in other areas, they signed midfielder Donny Van De Beek and have just left him to rot on the bench.

It begs the question, why sign him at all?

Really questionable decision making all round. pic.twitter.com/6LCItylxc6

Manchester United are a winning team right now and you don’t change a winning team in football, but after being a starter for years at Ajax this is a really challenging season for Van de Beek mentally. I just hope his time will come man, even if it would be next season instead. pic.twitter.com/KXAxoCr3UQ

Ole’s treatment of Donny Van De Beek is disgusting

Sometimes I just forgot the fact that Van de Beek is even on the bench for Manchester United.

When does Donny Van de Beek leave United then, the summer? He’ll not sit on the bench and waste his career at Old Trafford. #MUFC

If I’m Donny van de Beek I’m flying back to Holland and training with Ajax I wouldn’t give a fuck about the contract. Or the manager. Pride is more important

The Use of Van De Beek has been nothing short of a disgrace. 2 games in a row now he hasn’t played. And we know he playing starting against Villa because MCFRED will be ready again. Ole can’t keep telling us his time will come because when is his time.
