Manchester United moved to Brentford with the ambition of chaining after a convincing victory against Chelsea, facilitated by the red card received by the Blues. Ruben Amorim aligned his 3-4-2-1 with Mbeumo and Cunha in support of Benjamin Sesko. However, despite the importance of this previous victory, the Reds Devils quickly saw their match on a nightmare. From the first minutes, the team showed signs of fragility that could have been expensive, which did not miss.
The match quickly turned scandal to Manchester. Indeed, Igor Thiago opened the scoring in the 8th minute of play with a sublime stolen from the left foot, taking advantage of a call in the back of the defense which took Maguire to the devuine. In the 20th minute, the Brazilian aggravated the situation for men from Amorim by signing a double on a perfectly exploited center, carrying the score to 2-0 for Brentford. The former Bruges striker clearly undermined the experience of the Mancunian defense.
The defeat of too much for Amorim
Manchester United, however, managed to react thanks to its Sesko recruit, recruited for 85 million euros this summer in Leipzig. The attacker relaunched the Reds Devils on an opportunistic goal, recovering a bad recovery from the opposing goalkeeper before scoring, allowing his club to return to the match (1-2, 26th). However, the second half has changed anything despite the choices of Amorim, Yoro and Mainoo. Bruno Fernandes missed a penalty in the 76th minute, which did not happen before. A new error that illustrates the current decline of Manchester, since even his captain can no longer make the difference. At the end of the meeting, Jensen tripled the bet for Brentford on a counterattack concluded by a powerful shot from the outside from the surface (3-1, 95th). A new scathing reverse placing Manchester United to a pitiful 13th place.
Amorim said at a press conference: “This is normal for supporters, they don't know what's going to happen in the next match. To be honest, either, I don't know. Each meeting must be addressed as if it was the last. The next game has been the most important for a long time for Manchester United. »» Proof that even he no longer believes he does not. This new defeat once again highlights the serious problems of Ruben Amorim. The coach seems overwhelmed, his compositions and his tactical choices do not work, and he still persists in trusting his methods. The English press continues to point the finger at it, and this defeat may well be that of too much. If the situation does not improve quickly, a dismissal seems inevitable, the coach now embodying the symbol of the decline of the club.
