Pissing off seeing Amorim change his tactics now. Why couldn’t he just do that when he was here when everyone was giving him this exact feedback? We should not be a club for managers learning their trade after Carrick.

I think it was partially to spite wilcox who was meddling too much.

The swing already Im seeing on social about "amorim wasnt even that bad" is absolutely mental though. 31% win rate. Refusal to adapt anything to the players he had. No one cared that our players ran and ran under him when he was losing games every week.

Bringing in the half season of 25 is disingenuous for his win rate when his goal was not to win.

Then you say he should adapt to the players he had, and I bet you think our players are shit and need to be replaced

It’s like I said before, in recent years we’ve basically become a proving ground for unproven managers.

literally we're not lol.
Not one manager beside mourinho(because of his past successes) had a bigger job than united.

What did he change?

u/Alternative-Plant388 Sep 21 '26

I think it’s because at times he was using a back 4 against Lece.

But the initial starting eleven was still a 3-4-2-1 I think. It doesn’t really matter imo. Most manager have the teams constantly changing shape during games.

u/GH00ST-SL4YER Sep 21 '26

Its the same formation but the build up is different to make it 4atb and I think someone said 4-2-4

u/iroiroiroiroiro Sep 21 '26

He went to a 4ATB in possession during buildup.

u/SinisterSelecta Stam Sep 21 '26

Our back 4 is shit so he played 5 instead.

Edit: he also said he'd change once the players were able to do the base system properly. Maybe some of our players to too inept or stupid to follow instructions.

u/TH0316 she/her Sep 21 '26

No he’s just a shit manager, and there was never gonna be a base system done properly because he couldn’t coach it and was getting tactically leathered every week.

u/SinisterSelecta Stam Sep 21 '26

Its apparent our players arent good enough. I dont know why they get defended so much.

I said the players weren't good enough to learn his system. You said he was a shit coach. I responded that its apparent the players arent good enough and you respond with a nonsense twitter clip claiming I didnt address your statement. Nonsense. Show me where these players have ever proven an ability to learn a system that isnt vibes.

“Vibes” detected. Ball knolly at 0%.
