The Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund’s goalless drought in the Premier League extended to 14 matches after he failed to score against West Ham at the London Stadium. After the 20-year-old was subbed off in the second half, the fans on X mocked him for his lack of goals before Manchester United lost 2-0 to West Ham.
In the summer transfer window, the Danish footballer moved to Manchester United from Atalanta, and since joining the new club, his form in the Premier League has been nothing short of abysmal. Notably, in the UEFA Champions League, Rasmus Hojlund netted five goals in six group-stage matches to be the joint-high scorers in the European competition.

During this Premier League contest when Rasmus Hojlund was substituted in the 57th minute, the social media platform X went after the young striker for not scoring a league goal in 14 attempts.
Alejandro Garnacho wasn’t spared on X either after he failed to capitalise on a great opportunity to put Manchester United in the lead against West Ham in the first half.
