MANCHESTER UNITED fans are growing frustrated with striker Rasmus Hojlund after his poor attacking display against Ipswich.
Hojlund was up to his usual misfiring mishaps as United edged a dramatic 3-2 win over the relegation threatened Tractor Boys.
United trailed inside four minutes after Sunday league defending from Patrick Dorgu and horror goalkeeping from Andre Onana saw Jaden Philogene score the easiest goal of his career.
Sam Morsy’s own-goal and Matthijs de Ligt‘s tap-in saw United turn things around by the 26th minute, before Dorgu’s straight red for a potential leg breaker on Omari Hutchinson.
Philogene’s cross went under Onana, before Harry Maguire’s header rescued 10-man United, while Bruno Fernandes assisted the goals at Old Trafford.
But concerns were raised about Hojlund following a viral video of the Dane’s bizarre decision inside the box.
Teenage defender Leny Yoro produced a stunning Cruyff turn in the 61st minute, with United already 3-2 up.
Yoro turned Hutchinson inside out before passing straight into Hojlund’s path, with the striker just six yards from Alex Palmer’s goal.
But Hojlund failed to act like a proper No 9 and dummied the ball -with no team-mate behind him – when had acres of space.
Yoro’s cross instead was briefly collected by Ipswich defender Leif Davis, before Noussair Mazraoui nicked the ball to send a shot just wide.

And to make matters worse, Yoro’s ball travelled in the direct path of Hojlund’s preferred left-foot.
The French centre-back could be seen holding his hands up in frustration before returning to his usual position.
And the bizarre sequence has been slated by the Old Trafford faithful.
One wrote: “It’s this that finally turned me against Hojlund… he’s hopeless.”
While another said: “WHAT WAS HOJLUND THINKING HERE! 
”
A third added: “Why would you let that run past. Zero goalscoring instinct.”
One more wrote: “How in the first place is that ball getting past Hojlund. This guy just keeps getting worse by the day.”
After United’s 2-2 draw with Everton last week, fans called for Ruben Amorim to give 17-year-old Chido Obi a run out instead.
Hojlund – signed for £72 from Atalanta in 2023 – has managed just TWO Premier League goals in 22 games this season with zero assists.
Fans voiced their frustrations and booed Amorim’s decision to sacrifice Alejandro Garnacho after Dorgu’s red card.
Garnacho himself stormed down the tunnel and posted a cryptic Instagram story at full-time.
Man Utd ratings vs Ipswich as Maguire saves the day after Onana makes case to be WORST ever signing
MANCHESTER UNITED eased their fears of the drop in a topsy-turvy relegation six-pointer with Ipswich.
The Red Devils triumphed 3-2 despite playing the second half with ten men.
A major cock-up from Patrick Dorgu and Andre Onana saw Ipswich take a third-minute lead through Jaden Philogene.
Then, after United had recovered to lead 2-1, Dorgu saw a straight red card for a poor challenge on Omari Hutchinson.
Philogene scored again to level it before the break only for Harry Maguire to nod in to be United’s saviour.
