In Manchester United, the seasons follow each other and look alike. After the disaster of last year marked by a 15th place in the Premier League, it cannot be said that the men of Ruben Amorim took the news by the right end: an elimination in 32nd finals of EFL Cup against the modest club of Grimsby (English D4), and a starting start of the championship.
After six days of the Premier League, Manchester United has already lost three games. The results are not flattering either for his coach, Ruben Amorim, who has already lost more than one in two game since his appointment last year (17 defeats, 9 victories, 7 draws, 1.03 points per match). Suffice to say that at this rate, the Portuguese will quickly regret Erik Ten Hag to Mancunian supporters (27 defeats in 85 PL games, 1.72 PT/Match).
Amorim still in post, but until when?
The new defeat of this afternoon against Brentford should not reduce the popularity rating of the former Sporting coach, which has been very contested since the start of the season, and even asked to resign by many fans. His often fatalistic speech, leaves the impression that his messages no longer pass through his locker room: “It's always the same to lose in this club, it hurts a lot. You have to think about the next match. We have to play our game, not that of our opponents, but they were stronger on this point today ”he conceded at the microphone of the diffuser TNT SPORTS.
THE Daily Mail written about it: “It is quite difficult to win matches when you collect the first goal, and United did more often than anyone under Amorim: 21 times.” The former English international Peter Crouch declared on TNT SPORTS :: “We still had the impression that they were not able to create and, once again, they had a bad day of work.” “The Portuguese coach never won two games in a row. It's ridiculous. It is really a difficult performance to achieve in a way, Amorim is an excellent coach ”quipped The Sun.
The Mirror Add: “The Portuguese was right to say that he had no idea of the version of his team that would present itself this afternoon. Amorim's assessment is lamentable. A season without European football was supposed to offer him free weeks to work with his players, but this argument turned out to be illusory, the players being just as unreliable and distraught as last season. “ His dismissal would question the reputation of the director general Omar Berrada, who had moved heaven and earth to bring him in the past season. But recognizing his error is also a sign of humility.
