Whatever happened to those two muppets who were forever crowing about Manchester Utd ?
It seems they've lost all interest in football now. 🤷🏻♂

@Mark12 Jim may or may not prove effective. The early signs are mixed but it would be hard to do worse than the glazers.
Imo, Amorin is probably the right coach and needs to be given time. It needs to be thought of as a long-term project.

@Burnley123 I happen to think Amorim might prove to be no better than Ten Hag. Remember even West Ham said no thanks. His adherence to three at the back when none of them are suited to it could prove to be his undoing. That defence was an absolute shambles last night , not to mention the clown between the sticks.
As crazy as it might sound , Amorim could be gone before we know it. Their next two league games are Newcastle and us. It's highly likely they will lose both , then it’s 6 losses in the league in his first 9 league matches in charge.
Then it comes down to their next league match at Southampton. I reckon if they rock up to that one on the back of 6 losses in the bounce in all comps, he’ll be playing for his job. Lose that and I think he’s gone. You can’t lose 7 in a row at a club like United and expect to keep your job.

@LegendofPeza I dunno.
For all the instability, coaches at united do get a bit of time. No permanent appointment has been sacked with eighteen months.
Now obviously, they should have sacked Ten Haag in the summer but having now taken that step and appointed Amorin, they will have to see it through. West Ham (fwiw) probably regret that decision. Firing Amorin would now would put off future appointments.
If I was making the decisions at united, I would stick with Amorin. Accept that it needs time and that it's a min two-three year project. They won't get relegated and won't get in the champions league so should just focus on process to get to a better place for the next season. After a year, you need to be seeing progress towards the goal.and only sack the coach if you don't see that.
I think they will probably do that too because they don't have much choice.
