MANCHESTER UNITED fans trolled Kalvin Phillips by mocking his weight as he warmed up.

The midfielder is on loan at West Ham from rivals Manchester City, with the Hammers visiting Old Trafford on Sunday.

The Red Devils ran out comfortable 3-0 winners as Phillips featured from the bench for the last 18 minutes.

The United faithful loved the show from young guns Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho, who both got on the scoresheet.

But they also had plenty of entertainment winding up Phillips as he warmed up on the touchline.

With a smile on his face, the former Leeds ace obliged and lifted his bib to show his chest - much to the amusement of supporters sitting in the stands.

It is not the first time Phillips has been subject to such treatment at Old Trafford, with fans singing the same song when the midfielder visited Manchester City in January 2023.

It came after Pep Guardiola dropped Phillips from his squad, claiming he returned from England World Cup duty overweight.

"He didn’t arrive in the condition to do training sessions and to play. That’s why he cannot play.

"When he will be ready, he will play, because we need him, we need him a lot."
