Ruben Amorim - Manchester United Head Coach
- Thread starter sewey89
- Start date
He’s failing badly with his defensive as feck system. Working fine against big teams but giving “smaller teams” absolutely feck all to think about from us attacking wise. Tonight we had two players from 11 that can make something happen, at home, to fecking Brighton.
He can play whatever fecking system he likes, but this is Manchester United at home, he needs to give his head a fecking shake and get some attacking players onto that fecking pitch.

100%. Amad played amazing at RWB. He was better defensively when he played there.
The trouble was most of our defenders got fit and I think the feeling is that "one of them must be able to do a job there".
With Rashford exiled, Mount injured, and everyone just so bloody tepid, Amourim feels he needs him further forward.
I would play absolutely anyone else at RAM instead of moving Amad. Dip into the academy if you have to.
A 16 and two 17 year olds are your answer.
Amorim and Fernandes challenged the squad to deliver same intensity and spirit as they did against Liverpool and Arsenal. Magnificent response. They can piss off the lot of them.
I am talking about this: if they can't play well in a system they prefer, what makes you think they'll improve by switching to a system they don't prefer? It seems naive in my eyes.
He needs to do better, simple as that.
To be fair, the forwards were hardly free scoring under the other bloke.
He should be asking Ineos to sign a striker, it's the most critical position in the team. If it doesn't happen in January then it's more pain on the way until it can be rectified in the summer.

If the club don’t plan a Chelsea style mass clear out and recruitment, might has well sack him now.
Firmly believe we will finish mid table for the foreseeable. I just hope fans are patient with Amorim.

What do you suggest then?
Then we bring another manager in who will get a couple of good results, then as soon as it goes a bit t*ts up they down tools, another sacking and so it goes on. Modern footballers for you. Another manager might get performances, but we will still have a very averages squad and no bloody striker. We will still have Luke Shaw and Mason Mount taking permanant residence in the medical room. Nothing will change. The majortity of our problems have been caused by the powers on high.
Absolutely agree. His signings were the worst.
Atleast Ole got some known names for higher price. ETH spent bomb on players who no other club was interested in.
It’s clear that he won’t change his system even though we don’t have the players for it. So we have to bring him the players that will suit his system. Otherwise this will be a very worrying season.
Fernandes should focus on himself. He’s been non-existent in the last two games too.
That's a terrible thing to publicly disclose to be honest. There are players like De Ligt, Maz, Yorro, Ugarte, Mainoo who wouldn't appreciate this type of a narrative. He should be motivating his squad not shitting on them in public so early. Irrespective of whether he bought them or not.
sounds broken
It's not only intensity that is at fault here. It is our complete lack of ability to play on the front foot. We can still only play on the transition.
Christ he's gone in two footed on them. This isn't going to end well.
I’m not going to change anything or make any effort to adapt but someday, and I won’t say when, it will all be good, trust me bro.
He can’t keep getting away with that line. He could try not starting seven defensive players in a home game for the gazillionth time, for starters.
I dont think he's taking the pressure of the job particularly well.
We aren't getting 4 points from 18 because we have shit players. This narrative need to stop. It's utter bollocks.
But look at the bright side folks
Every manager who joined the club had a good run for the first few games.
Amorim is an exception that his system is DOA , so either it is DOA or odds are in his favor to better than his predecessors.

Quality control
He means we are playing like the worst team in United history and we need to change that. Chill out, Mr Hag.
Maybe because he's been hung out to dry.
I don't think the fact that we have shit players is helping, let's say that much...
Those are some crazy quotes 
Not necessarily. Their previous wingbacks like Mendes play fullback elsewhere. He converted a RW to RWB at Sporting, who I’m sure could go back to RW without issue. Much like Amad can play both.
What does this have to do with Ten Hag? Try not to wind up - and it doesn't make the statement less contravertial - its no wonder there are a few players who have dipped under him.
Ineos are inept and not the saviors we all thought they were.
How many tests does he need to run to make his assessment? I think we’re all pretty clear on which players will fit and which won’t, with most of the squad falling into the “won’t” category. So he submits a report to Jimmy Rats that says he needs 6 minimum, realistically 8, new players to get this team firing like his last team did. Jim says, you can have 1 maybe 2. So then what?
So you think players are actively sabotaging him
Start fecking changing something then.
Doesn’t have to be his fecking system, keep it, but get more attackers on to that fecking pitch man.
Been screaming it for weeks and weeks now, Manchester United simply cannot play at home with so many defenders and just two players capable of creating/scoring in our starting eleven.
Yet he fecking insists, week in, week out despite looking utterly shite and barely able to generate a shot on target.
Right now he’s coming across as naive and sorry to say, foolish as feck, and completely unprepared for the Premier League.
I have lost all trust in INEOS they have made bad decision after bad decision to the extent you have to question what their logical framework is.
They say that the art of communication is the language of leadership, yet we have heard nothing about Amorim's predicament. This same silence is what Jim did with Erik when asked if he had confidence in the manager he swerved the question with an obtuse response.
There are too many questions with INEOS, we don't know what their expectations are for his tenure, what the projection is with him as being successful. Amorim's contract term doesn't reflect them hiring to rebuild things from, it signifies them wanting to rally on competitively sooner rather than later. He has said himself that his job isn't safe. I think they'll sack him, after the quotes about them disagreeing over Erik then parting ways with Ashworth they can't be trusted to make sound judgements.
I'm not talking about the players.So you think players are actively sabotaging him
Rangnick on steroids.
I mean he's right about the team but he is also not helping himself.

But under Ten Hag the players were the problem for you? Now they’re not?
This season is fecked so I’m all for seeing what he can do with a few additions, selling a few and a pre-season under his belt. I fear however that Jimmy Brexit will can him before Easter.
Who then
