Agree with that , hope he proves everyone wrong , but because he's got a good personality he's not getting any criticism. Plus utd can't score goals

And since we have played with the new formation all teams have scored against us in all but 1 of the matches

This is bad. Amorim stubborness when his tactics has been found out by most EPL teams. His way might works in Portugal but he needs to shore up the team for now or he wont last till next season

There's no point persisting to instal a system where 70% of the squad is going to be replaced anyway.

It's not FM, he needs to finish at least respectively around 8th. A free season doesnt mean a blank cheque

This squad wouldn’t preform in any formation, we’re just shit.

Dudu · Sunday at 15:56

Almost a fourth :lol:

Agreed with the first part but not sure what Amorim can do. He could play Amad at RWB but he is our most dangerous attacker so it makes sense to use him as one of the AMs.

We could try Antony there but most fans think he is a terrible player. We don't have any players who can play LWB.

Unless we back Amorim with 3-4 new players his hands are pretty tied with team selection. Couple that with the fact we only have a handful of players who are good enough for a top 6 team.

I honestly don't know if we would gotten anything better than a draw with better players using these tactics. If we had a better goalie that puts his body on the line more sure we might stop the 2nd goal and not have a blunder for the 3rd, but our midfield still gets completely dominated and as a team we would be outworked by Brighton.

No player should be safe from being sold, they just aren't good enough.

Zero ball knowledge

laughtersassassin · Sunday at 15:57

We are actually fecked for the next 3-5 years.

We have no money so the situation is basically unfixable

DavidDeSchmikes · Sunday at 15:57

just a nothing performance.

we will finish in the bottom 10, most likely 13th or 14th, we are so so bad.

Cockeyed optimism

Drinking, but the latter has been tempting.

He won't. It's not his fault this has happened. The previous manager and glazers lack of football intellect has caused this. We're broke and left with a steaming pile of shite.

I don't blame Amorim because he's been honest from day one and he's playing the system he's always used. But if we're hovering around the relegation zone by March, and on this form that looks a near certainty, then I think he might get the chop.

I doubt it somehow, they would have said, just see what you can do with these players and we will see in January, then do naff all, they are a bunch of con artists. He has been sold a pup.

But at least he would've had preseason. Just seems silly to bring in a coach everyone knows plays only one system, not our system, mid sesson

Just because Onana is a problem does not mean Degea was the solution

He is if you put it back to back.

It's one thing having a flat tire, but replacing him with no tire is exactly not a solution.

We'd be better served with De Gea, it's not like we'll be pushing for titles anyway. Onana is just 2x worse. We cant afford to lose goals cheaply, we have problems without it as it is

Rockets Redglare · Sunday at 15:57

The crowd are dead, not that I blame them at all.

Amorim is the new Ange. A philosophy man with zero tactical flexibility. The only difference is at least Spurs are entertaining to watch .

A clear difference is that Amorim has only been in charge for a couple of months, and hasn't signed a single player? Quite clearly a nonsense comparison.

Hughie77 · Sunday at 15:58

40 pts tops . If the bottom 3 start winning games we're going to get dragged into it. If we get 14 more points out of this shower of shite.
Never mind sir Jim £66 a ticket, OT will fail to sell out before long and I'd bet I'd get a email for Thursday saying tickets available .

Safe to say we chose the worst possible timing. Sack ETH in the summer and this is a totally different discussion. Hopefully

It blew my mind how everyone seemed to get collective amnesia after the FA Cup win and forget how bad we had been for at least a season and a half.

This season was a write off the moment ETH wasn't sacked after that game.

Amad should. He is our one man team currently

jamesjimmybyrondean · Sunday at 15:58

Every team has ball carrying players except us

Getting done by fecking Brighton
Again

United Hobbit · Sunday at 15:58

Antony is pointless

ETH saddled us with utter crap

hellhunter · Sunday at 15:58

Remember the days when grabbing someone's neck was a red card?

Squeaky_Bum_Time · Sunday at 15:58

Yoro's decision making shows his age. Very evident in the last couple of games.

Mike Smalling · Sunday at 15:58

Proper 'ard from Yoro this.

calodo2003 · Sunday at 15:58

Hands to throat, no red card though.

Wrecking ralf · Sunday at 15:58

As shit as the players have been, this is another one on Onana

Ace of Spades · Sunday at 15:58

For the last time, the system is not the problem, it is the players.

The same system got us results against some of the best teams, the difference is in performance and effort from the players.

Florida Man · Sunday at 15:58

sixdwarf said:
But. Errr. They're not. And it is so transparently obvious that Amorim is shoehorning players to fit the system rather that having a system to get the best of the players he has. We have gone backwards under Amorim as it stands.

Who the feck promoted you

ValenciasDrilledCrosses · Sunday at 15:59

Are Brighton always such pathetic diving shits or do they just save it for playing us

devilish · Sunday at 15:59

hellhunter said:
If there's one big constant the last years, it's us getting battered by Brighton

The amount of tripe this squad has is unbelievable. I mean look at onana's blunder. I bet if we play present schmeichel he would save that. He's not alone. Most of this squad is mid table level at best

Would be pointless to sack him in March, to then have to bring someone else in. Might as well sack him now if you think that

It wouldn’t have made much of a difference let’s be honest

lysglimt · Sunday at 15:59

Either Amorim and his coaaches are awful at getting their ideas across - or the players are awful at listening to them. Probably a combination.

Orange Tree · Sunday at 15:59

Only Casemiro got sent off for hands on neck.

That's exactly the point. Just because no tire is a problem doesn't mean a flat tire is a solution to use your analogy

So how come we are worse under Amorim?

Last season under ETH we were comfortably the worse premier league team I have ever seen, we were bailed out by luck and moments of individual brilliance, but 8th flattered us, we should have benn lower.

Under Amorim we look better but are lacking any creativity and quality in attack, barring Amad

ManUnitedCanuck · Sunday at 15:59

No hand on Garnacho throat there??

Stadjer · Sunday at 15:59

Yoro wants to fight

Jericholyte2 · Sunday at 15:59

The entitlement in the squad is pathetic! If it’s not City, Arsenal or Liverpool they seem to think that, by being Man Utd players, they’ll just rock up and win.

Genuinely wouldn’t blink twice at any of them being sold.

I was gonna say this. Right in front of the lino too. Casemiro gets a red (I say this jokingly but it's true)
