TrebleChamp:
Did Mainoo play badly in that game? Abi you just want to bring up agenda in defence of Amorim subbing in defenders against Assnal and Fulham?

I am not defending anything. We were all over the place in the midfield, until Grisby retreated after their two goals, and we picked up the pace.

Katcall:
as coach, mention five players you will sideline

None

TrebleChamp:
And was the first player to register an assist this season, he has only played that one game.

That's the problem with stats. Bruno has all those stats too. When you focus too much on stats and ignore how your position/movements impact the team, you have a problem. If your team is not able to cover your negative side, your stats become very useless

Roy Keane:“System? Formation? Against Grimsby? Don’t make me laugh. That’s meant to be a glorified training session. Ji, you were an engine, you didn’t need Fergie whispering in your ear on how to run over lads who’ll be back at work Monday morning.”

Apparently today's babies need to be told to run faster, be stronger, catch the ball better, hold the ball better etc. They need to be told to show up for the ball and be quicker with their movements

nitrogen:
People saying the players could have won the game without the manager’s input. Question is, what if the current system and instruction limits them from playing their game? It’s one thing to allow the players to do their thing without restrictions, it’s another to impose some shitty system on them and expect them to do their thing.

Tie a professional boxer’s hands against a rookie, and expect the boxer to win, no be juju be that? He will be beaten mercilessly.

Wahala.

Manager says the players are not playing his instruction. Fans say the players are playing his instruction, that is why they are not winning. Let someone pass the mic to Rashford or Ganarcho to speak on behalf of the players

Jamiuokolaa:


Pep is an Emotionally Intelligent manager who would rather douse tension and prevent the press from fuelling the flames of discord and rift in his team.

He could have leveraged on his reputation and made issues out of it but he didnt.

Some managers are just not ready for jobs at certain clubs

That is a Debruyne o. You need to attain a certain status to be treated this way. There are many reports of Pep with many other players. Emotional Intelligent una

Leyqute:
PSG were brutal in player recruitment. If you don’t shape up, they bin you in 1-2 years. We have to be ruthless about players as well in addition to coaches too.

That is why I asked o. Real Madrid binned Bale and Hazard when they felt they were not getting enough. When they can't sell, they dump you on the bench and move on. We need to be ruthless and spend a lot. We will enjoy the benefit later

Leyqute:
I don’t disagree about that at all. Amorim had 5 players in defensive positions on the pitch and they were all useless.

But that doesn’t mean these players shouldn’t be able to string together a few passes, camp in the opponent half and make them beg for mercy. Grimsby outran us physically. That is totally unacceptable.

We were down 2-0 and Amorim couldn't take out a defender for a midfielder or attacker. He is not a serious fellow

Jamiuokolaa:
Carabao cup Competition wey him for dey use hol body, Grimbsy town don send us packing

He should get ready for the bench because Amorim will always call on his brother to help him especially now that he is under very hot sit

TrebleChamp:
Really? Same Mainoo that is rubbish according to some lovers of United? He has the right to request to leave, cos he knows Amorim will never bench or substitute Bruno no matter how bad he plays.

Mainoo started on Wednesday though

odizeey:
Let them buy.

This club that takes weeks to conclude one deal and until that one is concluded before they turn to the next?

Is the club ready to give players the boot after 1-2 years of underperformance or its just for the coach?

If the keeper messes up a simple catch or punch, will the keeper be sold immediately or just the coach has to go?

odizeey:
If it's left to me.
Let Amorim be kept and let him stick to that formation.

Let them play it till it becomes part of their life. E go must work.

It won't work unless the club is ready to buy and continue buying

Oasis007:


.....nope! He genuinely ready to work away, if the team still play nonsense before the break.

Just like the rest before him, it's obvious that he is already tired. They just can't resign and walk on their. They need to sacked

Jamiuokolaa:
I think what he meant by the "players speaking loud" is that:

•Specific instructions were given to the players prior to the game. I think he was particular about those instructions being carried out.

•The lack of intensity (and poor performance) especially in the 1st half despite his clear instructions, is the team's way of telling him that they don't trust his methods and would probably not be taking his orders any longer.

It's never clear with Amorim and his dodgy English atimes

You have a point. So if that's the case, he should be talking about leaving. It's a lost battle already. He can't win this fight

LMAO Amorim dey use reverse psychology on the management. Let's see how it goes

patrickmuf:
A manager says the players clearly showed they want him sacked after a disastrous outing, and yet we have not heard anything from the club several hours later?

What will that dressing room look like? How will Amorim and the players relate going forward?

We are in for a long bumpy ride...

Yeah he mentioned that the players already said a lot to each other after the match. I can imagine the kind of tension and bad blood in that dressing room. We're definitely not winning the next match. He should have been asked to resign

So no statement by the club management? Amorim hasn't been sacked yet and he does not want to use his head to resign?

dreamxhaser:
He is saying that he lost the dressing room. Frankly, it's what anyone with a working set of eyes also got from the match alone. No need for interviews.

Any heavily rotated Prem side easily beats the likes of Grimsby with all due respect to them. This isn't about tactics or what have you. The players phoned it in.

Like they shouldn't even need a coach to beat them. But it is what it is

Jamiuokolaa:
•£240m on players without getting a single penny from transfers till date

•£50m to revamp our training facilities

You mean these huge investments destroyed Amorim?

Exactly! It's so unfortunate

odizeey:
And this pains me. I was discussing it with my guy.

All coaches we've signed and sacked have gone downwards, except maybe, Van Gaal who went to the national team.

Lol LVG is in the same bracket. The national team is not even top 30 national team.

It's not working for Amorim and he is out of ideas. He needs to step back and take a break. About 4 others have done same before him so he should not take it personal. We await the next one we will destroy

This club where players and coaches come to kill their career. Hmmmmmmm

Jamiuokolaa:
Why?

Isn't it too early?

Didnt we play well against Arsenal?

Haven't we bought players?

Relax brother!

I even forgot that Arsenal game. No vex I don relax

That Fulham game already showed there is nothing to offer this season

lmao the match they were supposed to use to hold body

patrickmuf:
The performance in the home loss gave us the feeling that we could go to Craven Cottage and leave with 3 points in the bag...

If we had a much better performance with the result remaining the same, the outrage won't be as much as this.

Liverpool defender with the ball and I can see at least 3 options in the midfield for the defender. That is 3 players coming closer to receive pass. But my dear club will have an empty midfield with just one midfielder to receive the pass.

It's funny how an away draw got more outrage than a home loss.

patrickmuf:
Removing Amad for Dalot at that time invited pressure.

Even more criminal is removing Casemiro for Sesko...At that point, we had Bruno and Mount in midfield...

In his post-match interview, he talked about Bruno not being in the game but yet he played for the entirety of the game. Does it make sense? Will Mainoo be on the pitch up to 60 minutes if he had such a disaster of a game?

This is the same thing Bin Laden was doing with Maguire and Rashford, they'll play rubbish every other match but will never be dropped. Amorim should continue...

I'm not sure I have seen bruno subbed before. He just must play. We need to see his contract

TrebleChamp:
The players excuse again 😁, what did we spend £200m in this window on again?

Read it again, slowly

Jamiuokolaa:
The new coach would need his own players + a pre season because there is no assurance that these ones would suit his style.

You cant force players on the new coach abi was that not the agreement on these pages?

Unfortunately yes. Let's get ready to contribute if the club refuses to buy new players for the next coach
