Ruben Amorim | United meet Sporting release clause

[FriedClams]

Worth noting that his 22/23 season wasn't great

 

[lysglimt]

Hjulmand and/or Gyökeres joining during the january window ?

 

[Leftback99]

fair, but it's not like I've left out any goal scorers in our squad. Rashford? Zirkzee? Nah.

Agree but it's the big problem for any manager with this squad and any line up on paper. Plenty of options at the back (lwb is an issue), very little threat up front.

 

[lysglimt]

Worth noting that his 22/23 season wasn't great

Worth noticing that he won 38 out of the 43 league matches after 22/23

 

[Rodgerzzz]

"When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's Amorim"

 

[Mr Pigeon]

He’ll come now.

I know I am.

 

[mazhar13]

everybody in Germany laughs at Plettenberg. He finds some nuggets here or there, but that's about it.

Couple of weeks ago, he seriously claimed that Red Star Belgrade might sell a player they've loaned out from Stuttgart, with Belgrade bagging the whole profit. I wouldn't trust that dude with anything.

The Silas news? I'm aware of that. He mentioned that this was written into the loan agreement with Red Star Belgrade. Stuttgart will make their money from the sell-on clause that exists.

Anyways, both he and Luckhurst have gotten things wrong (and terribly so at times), but they've gotten way more right than wrong. That's the difference between them and journalists who take riskier punts like Jamie Jackson, Neil Custis, Graeme Bailey, Christian Falk, or Manuel Veth.

 

[Shark]

I think its unlikely that he'll join us straight away. Perhaps in January?

Surely he absolutely is. We need results now.

 

[devilish]

Wouldn’t be surprised to see him available soon, our players are known to have extra motivation to do well for a new manager.

It depends when his contract expires. That last year is when the likes of shaw tend to shine

 

[Spoony]

Still doing great. We already have our next star/future big sale coming up. Geovany Quenda, a starter for us with 17 years of age. Youngest to score for us in the league and was the MoM against PSV in the CL for me. I can see Amorim wanting Quenda to come with him but he will be expensive.

Right, Quenda it is.

 

[GreatDane]

I’m about to nut!

We need to have a talk about sharing personal information!

 

[Sly]

Maybe here in the dirt with the rest of the scumbags, but in the Scout forum we'll continue to doxx and hurl abuse at you.

fair

What do you think of Amorim doing hair implants? Will you sour on him?

 

[RDCR07]

We need to have a talk about sharing personal information!

Should we have it before i nut or after?

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

I was watching SkySports earlier and saw Kaveh just chancing on a whim trying to put his own 'journalistic' understanding into the mix, saying Amorim would be waiting for the City job and so he's a distant candidate.


And then a video comes out with him saying he's emerged as being in talks

 

[Red Rash]

Are they saying Ruuuuuud or Ruuuuuuben?

 

[Sly]

Hjulmand and/or Gyökeres joining during the january window ?

Do you guys need Hjulmand? Don't you have Hojlund and Zirkzee?

 

[glazed]

5-3-2. Bad news for Rashford or Garnacho

 

[devilish]

Question: if Amorim comes and becomes good will you guys forgive me for my Rojo report?

Hi mate how will garnacho and rashy fit in such system?

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

Is this actually Rub-ON Amor-ON?

It's RubIN AmorIN.

 

[rimaldo]

@rimaldo really rubbed off on you.

as my lawyer successfully argued, i happened to be relieving myself in a general area, and @Mr Pigeon happened to walk into my arc, which was actually an invasion into my own personal space.

 

[Escobar]

How did he do in the CL or EL?

 

[UnofficialDevil]

Up and coming manager that did well in a shite league, what could go wrong ?

 

[Red_toad]

Feck INEOS don’t mess about.
Looking forward to his first presser, speaks good English and quite good at dealing with the media.

 

[Spoony]

Still doing great. We already have our next star/future big sale coming up. Geovany Quenda, a starter for us with 17 years of age. Youngest to score for us in the league and was the MoM against PSV in the CL for me. I can see Amorim wanting Quenda to come with him but he will be expensive.

He plays on the right doesn't he? OK. He's already an upgrade on Anthony. And I'm emailing Berrada to tell him to buy Barcola.

 

[devilish]

Up and coming manager that did well in a shite league, what could go wrong ?

Hey hey hey

 

[GreatDane]

It’s either now or end of the season. Why Jan?

Their league has a 3 week winter breakbfrom mid december to jan, no?
If he wanted to leave his current team in the best possible way mid season, then that would be a good time. Just a thought.

 

[demetre]

Will we ever have three fit centre backs to play 3-4-3?

 

[V.O.]

How did he do in the CL or EL?

Got bummed twice by Ten Hag's Ajax in 21-22.

Abort mission. Code black.

 

[McTerminator]

Question: if Amorim comes and becomes good will you guys forgive me for my Rojo report?

Big ask

 

[LawCharltonBest]

Again, Bruno didn't play under Amorim

I didn’t suggest that at all. But I can assume that he’d want to work with him

 

[GreatDane]

Why? That's what we're paying for.

See my other answer. Just a thought if Amorim wanted to leave them in a 'good way'.

 

[Sly]

Hi mate how will garnacho and rashy fit in such system?

I actually think Garnacho and Amad will fit well since Amorim like to play with wingers like them. At Sporting it's Quenda and Catamo. Not so sure about Rashford though. I don't see Sporting players with his characteristics in Amorim system.

One thing about Amorim is that he likes giving chances to academy players. We always have one of the youngest teams in our league and european competitions.

 

[Berbasbullet]

Up and coming manager that did well in a shite league, what could go wrong ?

Meh that once described Fergie!

No top top manager who is currently at a big club joins us. Has to be done.

 

[crossy1686]

5-3-2. Bad news for Rashford or Garnacho

Why? They'll play as forwards

 

[UnitedSofa]

Will we ever have three fit centre backs to play 3-4-3?

Well now EtH won’t run them into the ground in training, hopefully we will

 

[the_cliff]

I don't see anything in Zirkzee that would compel us to keep him, especially when there are other strikers who are likely to be available in the summer.

Gyokeres

 

[Kaos]

How did he do in the CL or EL?

Europa league last season - made it to the final 16, beaten by eventual winners Atalanta.

2022/2023 Champions league - finished third in the group stage, then beaten by Juventus in the QFs of the Europa league.

This season's CL they've won two and drawn one. Though they're yet to be tested against elite opposition (they have Arsenal next).

 

[Drifter]

So, from sexy Dutch football to sexy Portuguese football. We'll see

 

[AndyMUFC]

I know very little about him but know he’s the hipster choice at the minute. Think that 3-4-3 system he apparently likes to play might really suit us too with our CB and CM options.

Pleased that it looks like we’re getting a permanent manager mid season for a change too. Gives him time to assess.

 

[Sir Erik ten Hag]

Pretty much. Also means a massive clear out of ETH players next summer in exchange for ones Amorim needs to fully implement his own style of play.

Wasn't the whole point of having a DOF is not having to have these "clear-outs" every time we change manager?
