“Be humble”: Dazzling United star sends a timely reminder to the most delusional fanbase on social media

Very few expected Manchester United to travel to the Emirates Stadium and return home with a positive result. With Michael Carrick now at the helm, the Red Devils came back from a goal down to win 3-2 against Arsenal, thanks to a late goal from Matheus Cunha. The caretaker head coach’s perfect game plan, coupled with his man-management, ensured back-to-back victories against the Premier League leaders and the second-placed team. Interestingly, the Gunners hardly looked capable of scoring from open play, most often resorting to trying to win set-pieces to bombard the box. Arsenal’s reliance on set-pieces is well known This has been a common theme of ridicule among Arsenal’s opponents this season, with the North London side at their strongest from corner kicks. Your only hope is corner🤣 Be humble KID 🤫 — Amad (@Amaddiallo_19) January 25, 2026 Their fans were giddy with excitement before kick-off, with many predicting the 20-time English league champions to get thrashed away from home. And United hero Amad was having none of it. After the game, he took to X (formerly Twitter) to engage in banter with Arsenal fans. “Enjoy Kid. Your only hope is corner. Be humble kid,” the Ivorian wrote in response to an Arsenal fan. Not the first time the team from London have had to face these words. Amad’s golden words for Arsenal fans Despite not winning the league in over 20 years, and with zero Champions League titles to their name, Arsenal fans are often the most vocal on social media. While they are deservedly top of the league this season and could go on to silence all their doubters this year, until then, the team and the fans need to get a grip. And Amad certainly provided them with a timely reminder. As for United, they cannot afford to relax and need to keep their momentum going when they face Fulham at Old Trafford next Sunday.
