MANCHESTER UNITED fans made their feelings loud and clear over their next manager with a chant at Burnley.
Darren Fletcher was in the dugout on an interim basis following the sacking of Ruben Amorim after his bombshell attack on the board.
His blast at the board followed the 1-1 draw at Leeds United – and it ultimately brought an end to his 14-month reign at the club.
Former midfielder and Scotland international Fletcher took the team at Turf Moor, which like the weekend, ended in a share of the points.
Benjamin Sesko netted a double in the 2-2 draw and while he gave the travelling fans something on the park to cheer, they made feelings clear over the situation off it.
The travelling band in the away end at the Clarets sent a clear message to the Manchester United hierarchy – with Director of Football Jason Wilcox in the stands – as they chanted for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, amid the hunt for a new boss.
Before a ball had been kicked the United fans were singing the name of their former boss and striker.
They also chanted for Michael Carrick, who has been linked with both the interim manager job and a role in Solskjaer’s setup.
And Fletcher was also serenaded as fans called him a “football genius”.
We told you yesterday how the Red Devils have lined up Solskjaer to return as caretaker for the second time.

He was in charge for 17 games as an interim in the 2018-19 campaign before landing the job for keeps – and he is the frontrunner to take charge for the rest of the season.
Carrick – who the fans also chanted for – has also been sounded out, and he has previous experience in the caretaker position at Old Trafford.
Fletcher confirmed he will be in charge for the Brighton clash while the search goes on.
He accepted the role of interim head coach after asking for Sir Alex Ferguson’s “blessing”.
