Manchester United fans on social media have called out Christian Eriksen following their 1-0 Premier League loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday, April 20. Eriksen conceded a needless foul that led to Wolves' goal, which cost United three points at Old Trafford.
During the game, the Danish midfielder was close to giving Manchester United the lead in the 34th minute. However, goalkeeper Daniel Bentley was up to the task as he stopped the free-kick from hitting the back of the net.
In the 76th minute, Eriksen fouled Matheus Cunha in a promising position, and Wolves were awarded a free kick. Pablo Sarabia (77') converted his free kick, which was difficult for Andre Onana to stop, and this gave Wolves the lead.

Cunha (82') was denied the opportunity of doubling their lead by Onana, who made an excellent save. In the 84th minute, Mason Mount received a pass from Alejandro Garnacho, but he blazed his shot over the bar. Thus, the game ended 1-0 in favor of Wolves.
In his stint on the pitch, Eriksen maintained a passing precision of 85% (63/74). He delivered one key pass, created one big chance, but lost possession of the ball 28 times (via Sofascore).
In the game's aftermath, fans took to X to complain about the foul that Eriksen conceded, which led to Wolves' goal and his performance in general. One fan tweeted:
"Genuinely don't know why Eriksen still plays? Can't remember the last good game he had."
"Watching eriksen play 90 minutes football is real torture," another added.
"Shouldn’t have played Eriksen🤷🏻♀️," an unhappy fan suggested.
"Eriksen need to leave @Manutd asap , I haven't seen a game he controlled that we won ..," another complained.
"Eriksen costed us this game btw… Cunha kept his hand on your face and you didn’t fall?? You went ahead to foul him? Even amateur can’t do that rubbish," wrote another.
