I'd say Ruben is smart enough to realize that he has no natural reassurance but that in the worst case he would land softly. If we sack him, I think it is fair to say it will come with another nice compensation fee. At this rate, maybe we can achieve spending 100 million in compensation fees in 10 years. Where are we? I think, Ole and ETH were at least 10 each, weren't they? Think Mourinho also had a mentionworthy one.
Maybe a Bruno compilation on your phone to lighten the mood?
So you seem to not like the new coach then?
How many points off were we from a European spot when be joined? They were already writing off the season? Need to see what happens Thursday but I have a hard time believing if he said he'd finish 16th and bomb out all of the cup games they'd have signed him up enthusiastically.
Who calls Arteta an outstanding manager?
Why don't we sign every Tom and their pug puppy every time they turn up at Old Trafford? Bassey was better than him and so was Iwobi. United should put in a bid too.
Well here's the thing and brace yourself for this.
His post makes no sense as it shows how bad he is compared to all those other managers.
His contract is only two and a half years right? Hardly a long term project.
To be honest I'm the same. 5 at the back and 2 number 10's seems ridiculous to me, and I can't see it ever working.
You don't know that what he achieved at Sporting will be the same at United or in the PL
He should have been sacked on the spot for mentioning the name Gareth Southgate
While also been not a milion miles off Arteta and Klopp
With Mazraoui at the club, I think we need like 5 other CB's which we would normally have as well.
To be fair Amorim's golden era of success came in that week where he stopped picking the names out of a hat, but hadn't yet been forced to use the bench as a crèche. Those heady days of 3 wins on the bounce will be hard to return to while practically half the subs we're naming started the season in Arsenal's youth setup.
We're miles off mate when you factor manager and team performance. Klopp and Arteta were able to stablize results, the former even got his ideas into a team that wasn't his pretty quickly. Amorim hasn't.
The pro’s of Harry are only in a back 3 system because he’s good on the ball, a serious goal threat and in the air he’s elite, plus he has that diagonal switch pass, if you have real pace on the wide CB’s you can cover his weaknesses and you get the guy that made two team of the tournaments internationally, Yoro and A Heaven might be the solution, However MDL seriously impressed me in the last game at RCB which is rapidly becoming his best position.
No but I expect a coach that manages Man United not to come out with yet another statement saying ; “The Europa cup doesn’t matter, just like he says the same about the FA Cup!”
My point is SJR likes to fire Coaches and DOF, so if RA doesn’t improve the form on the pitch he’ll get sacked whether this season or early next.
This is based on nothing but faith. Faith and Hope will not get Amorim or the team higher up the table. He needs to sort this shit out.
Why do posters like this always ignore the context around these 8th place finishes? Both managers came into teams that were underperforming and in bad form, they immediately put their stamp on them by getting them to play their style of football relatively quickly. However, because the teams were made up of players that were mostly not a good fit or good enough, they had inconsistent form. But at least with Klopp in that first half a season, you could see improvement. Arteta won a trophy in his first season, and although his second was not good enough position wise, clearly something was being done that the club could see they were on the right path. This is the polar opposite of Amorim, where he took a team that was in bad form but not in the worst place positionally, and then made it perform worse. We went from mid table to lower table within four months, how is this in anyway the same?
