Why is Wilcox in line of fire from Man Utd fans?
Story updated
The story in brief
5-second readWith Michael Carrick's position as Man Utd boss under scrutiny, focus has also turned to director of football Jason Wilcox.
From the source
As the clocked ticked down during Manchester United's 3-0 defeat by Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Sunday, the home fans made it clear what they thought about director of football Jason Wilcox.
Singing his name along with an obscenity, the message was brutal and to the point. It was sung by a majority of the United supporters, and on more than one occasion.
It came less than two weeks after United defender Lisandro Martinez had launched a blistering attack on the club's hierarchy for not strengthening the squad, with a particular message for Wilcox.
