Manchester United are slammed by their own fans after appearing to doctor the audio of their video
Manchester United fans have reacted angrily to a club video posted on Twitter showing new £70million signing Casemiro being unveiled as a player before Monday’s victory over Liverpool.
Supporters are blasting the 13-time Premier League champions for doctoring the audio in their short video of Casemiro in an attempt to silence disgruntled fans who want a change in ownership.
United fans staged protests against the Glazer family in the build-up to kick off at Old Trafford, before singing songs aimed towards the American owners throughout the match against their arch rivals.

The official video shows Casemiro emerging from the tunnel and onto the Old Trafford pitch to chants of ‘United, United, United’.
However contradicting videos posted by supporters present in the stadium’s famous Stretford End show a different version of events, with the audio failing to match up as shouts of ‘We want Glazers out’ is heard instead.
Man United posted the unveiling video on Wednesday as they build up to a weekend visit to Southampton that could see Casemiro make his Premier League debut.

But the club’s latest social media post has been quickly pounced on by fans online with some blasting the English giants as ‘pathetic and embarrassing’.
One Twitter user mocked the club for thinking they could get away with swapping the crowd noise on their presentation of the Brazilian star, saying: ‘Like they didn’t think we’d realise. Pathetic’.
Others joined in showing their amazement that the club would try to silence them from revolting against the owners by labelling the United hierarchy as ‘shameless’.
The negative responses continued to flood in as one fan said, ‘Holy s*** that is embarrassing’ while another branded the edited footage as being ‘insanely cringe’.

While other fans reacted strongly to the apparent doctoring of audio in a recent Twitter post
Shocked supporters angry at the club refused to be kept quiet and explained that the proper audio should have shown Casemiro walking out to shouts of ‘We want the Glazers Out’, which can be heard clearly in a video posted from a member in the stands.
Erik ten Hag got his first win as the new Man United boss with an impressive 2-1 victory over Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool and will attempt to follow that up with a first away victory of the season on the south coast on Saturday.
