Manchester United fans admitted that Unai Emery is not the right man to manage the club. The Aston Villa boss suffered an incredible meltdown in his furious post-match interview.

United rescued a stunning point against Villa as Michael Carrick’s inspired substitutions to bring Joshua Zirkzee and Patrick Dorgu off the bench set up a dramatic comeback as both found the back of the net in stoppage time.

Villa had twice led by two goals, including going 2-0 up in the first four minutes of the match, but twice Emery’s side threw away the advantage at the end of both halves.

After Dorgu’s goal in the last minute of stoppage time, Emery stormed off down the tunnel, missing United put one final ball across the box to potentially win the game, and ripping off his coat.

Emery’s interview was pure box office as he took exception with the amount of questions he was being asked and was left furious talking about his decision to walk down the tunnel early.

He said: "No emotion. They scored in minute 96 and there were six minutes added. I [thought] the match was finishing."

Emery then lost his head when he was asked whether he felt the goal being awarded was unfair after Zion Suzuki had flapped at the corner in a crowded six-yard box. "No, no. Not unfair. Please,” Emery replied as he stared at the interviewer.

"They scored the goal in minute 96. You were making the question [about why] I left before. Because the minute 96 and 30 seconds, was when we started the kick-off."

"My English is so poor, but it's clear or not?" Emery bluntly asked, before sarcastically saying: “Ok. Thank you, thank you very much. More questions?"

After being told no, he frustratingly ended: “No? Thank you very much. Have a good Sunday."

Fans reacted to Emery’s uncomfortable interview and antics, as one said: “He is not a big team manager, and his tactics will never suit a big team.”

A second joked: “Like I said that other week, he'd be in a straight jacket by Christmas at United.” A third replied: “You're dead right. I like the guy, he has the Kevin Keegan way about him. He's honest and a straight shooter, but Old Trafford would destroy him and he probably us.”

Another said: “He'd be swallowed up by United,” as a fifth echoed: “Godammit you’re right.” While a Villa fan bluntly said: “Well he won't be going to you so you won't have to worry about it.”

Carrick’s job hangs in the balance with the point not enough to pull United out of the relegation zone during the November international break.

Emery has been linked with the Old Trafford job if Carrick was axed, but Eddie Howe and Julian Nagelsmann appear to be the leading candidates if the position became available.
