Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach

I’m just taking these games as short term pain for long term gain.

There’s problems in our squad, such as the main left back being so fragile fitness wise that we simply can’t depend on him anymore. The deputy left back has been out for well over a year and looks at best extremely rusty and at worst probably not playing at this level if he leaves.

Rashford based on his experience, wages and general status in our squad, should be our Salah but he’s more like another(!) Sancho when he’s been playing this past year or so, and now he’s pretty much excommunicated from the team.

We badly need wing backs and a relatively experienced striker and once we get those, I think we’ll look much better.
 
He said it was going to get worse before it got better. But feck me, how long can we keep losing home games?

It's going to be another shit and painful season isn't it
 
This is the first game that is on him. It was a very very bad starting 11 to pick against Bournemouth.
 
It was a mistake to rest players against that Spurs side. Win there and build more confidence going into this match. Pity.
 
3-0 down at home to Bournemouth after already losing at home to Forest, this is an ambarrasment.

We wernt even this bad under Ten Hag.
 
Yet it was the big and strong zirkzee who got brushed away. Its embarrassing for all involved

He's a forward (sort off). He defends as a forward. Defenders should be the ones defending
 
Amorim needs to change coats to his usual one. This one is bad luck
 
He's says all the right things but it's not great at the minute and Brexit Jim is known to be trigger happy.

It has. He needs to bin that formation. It’s never gonna work and it’s way too defensive. No excuse for such a defensive line-up at home vs. Bournemouth, it’s no wonder we don’t create anything.
 
Said it on Thursday that resting players was a terrible idea after the win against city. You need to build some momentum and throwing the cup away was a bad idea
 
These players are braindead. He can't fix that. I've never seen a worse group of players at this club in my lifetime. Even our captain is a liability.
 
Forest and Bournemouth have come to old Trafford and put 6 past us and we've 30 minutes to go here.

This is absolutely woeful

So many defenders yet we still can't stop conceding
 
Conceding goals left, right and centre playing with a back 5 of defenders.

He won‘t do that. Give him new players or otherwise this appointment does not make sense.
 
The players are shite but why the feck are we playing 3-4-3 when this squad is clearly not built for it. I would understand if it was the end of the season but we've got 2/3 of the season left.
 
He’ll need to quickly learn that he can’t be starting Zirkzee and expect to win football matches.

That was always the issue with appointing him in November. I felt at the time it was a mistake. All the gloss wears off with no training time and the upshot is he'll know fully which players aren't up to it, and the few who are will be used to his tactics.
 
Will be gone by the summer if this continues.

His team selection and tactics are not working.

No, he will get 2 years. I will judge him next season properly, this season for me will be very inconsistent. He is not a miracle worker, but i expected the appointment mid season to be badly timed, as he will get judged immediately without much time to train and no players to buy to strengthen.
 
I know its hindsight, but we were told this summer that the club would recruit under a unified tactic/style of play moving forwards.

I can't for the life of me imagine that it would be a 3 at the back formation that requires wingbacks, after what we just splurged this summer.

Bring back Ruud already.
