Barnsley manager, Darrell Clarke, has threatened to ‘slap’ his players after they were thrashed 7-0 by Manchester United in the Carabao Cup.
Braces from Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, and Christian Eriksen and a penalty from Antony saw the hosts run riot on Tuesday night.
Barnsley had eliminated Wigan and Sheffield United to reach the third round, but were swept away by Erik ten Hag’s men at Old Trafford.
It left Clarke fuming and warning his squad never to criticize Premier League players.
He said on Sky Sports: “If I ever hear my players telling me Premier League players are poor I’ll be giving them a slap because we were miles off against a team that can absolutely destroy you when you’re not at it.
“They’re a quality team but we’re very disappointed in our performance. We haven’t done ourselves justice. That was my fear tonight coming here.”
