MANCHESTER UNITED'S new stadium has been compared to a "dishwasher tablet" as the club prepare to submit plans for the £2billion project.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe's vision for a 100,000-seater ground has been laid out in a series of pictures showing their ideas.
Man Utd chiefs are looking to submit their plans before the end of the year in the hope work can began in early 2025.
But some football fans were quick to mock the images as they compared the venue to various less-than-impressive objects.
One social media user said: "It looks like a dishwasher tablet."
While another added: "Why does it look like a boiled sweet."
A third replied: "From the top it’s a dishwasher tablet. From the side it’s a cheesecake."
And a fourth responded: "Looks like a one of those toilet bowl you get while you're in hospital and can't walk to the bathroom 💀💀."
It is thought that the work could take up to three years to complete.
This would mean that the earliest the Red Devils would be playing in their new ground would be 2028.
Computer-generated images show "New Trafford" to be circular in shape with a huge roof.
It will be built adjacent to Old Trafford, with the plans also including a regeneration of the Trafford Park region around the brand new ground.
New houses, commercial areas and improved transport links have all been proposed.
Mayor of Manchester Andy Burnham said: "This could be the biggest regeneration scheme ever seen in this country."
The club consulted with 30,000 fans about what to do and believe there is roughly a 50-50 split on staying or moving.
Old Trafford, which has been criticised for its leaky roof and ageing infrastructure, has been United’s home since 1910.
The target is for completion by 2030.

Fans are tired of watching Man U matches at the current stadium and even at cinema because of their poor form, now they want to build a hundred thousand capacity stadium. Ok that will be nice. My only fear is that, let's the stadium do not be transformed into hotel.
