Exactly - and that's what's Nitrogen was trying to tell you about the manager.
We are saying the same thing...they way we've been trying to shape up has not been working. Stop doing that!

Please be careful what you wish for.
United are over one billion pounds sterling in debt. There is no money to sign players except there is a sale of some players in the club.
Amorim has got the team hooked at the lower half of the league table . Payments are made to clubs according to where they finish on the league table. So except United stay in this league and try to win the Europa so they can get into the Champions league through the back door I just don't see where the money to sign players who will suit Amorim's system is coming from.
The money certainly wouldn't come out if Manchester United are relegated into the Championship.
It doesn't matter. I can wish for Real Madrid to be relegated, do you think that will happen with how they are performing now?

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

A manager that coached this same squad to 3rd 2 years ago and won the last FA Cup wasn’t good enough for you. But you’re demanding that a new manager that takes over the same squad in mid season after bad results produce magic?

Fear God now.
Wicked people, they sacked the man (ETH), and they keep raining curses on him after he won them trophies lipsrsealed cry.
What else do they want from him? 🤸‍♂️🤣🤣👨‍🦼

Yeah, only that a manager needs to actually show workings to earn more time i.e to prove that he is the right man for the job

Breaking negative records left right and centre surely doesn't help any manager's reputation

Maybe Amorim too should implement Ten Hag's trick of winning trophies to buy more time..lol

If we finish in this 15th position and manage to win the UEL or FA cup, he might be lucky enough to earn INEOS' benefit of doubt and forge ahead with whatever plans he has..

Las las, managers are like trains thats why the general perception is that it might take a while before we recover from the mess Ten hag dragged us into
The problem didn't even start from ETH, he just compounded it.
Amorim is just showing everyone that these set of players can work with him.
It's not as if he can't tweak it but what's the use? any ETH 2.0?

The sooner fans realize we're in a deep hole, the better. Digging further won't help.

Oasis007:
cheesy


......really cracked up with comical views of some United fans. Do you guys actually believe our players are better than mid-table clubs' players?!

What makes Onana better than Pickford?! Maguire and De Ligt better than Braithwaite and Tarkowski?! Oh cos they are wearing Manchester United Jersey right?!

Is Hujlund a better Striker than Beto?! Compare Gueye and Casemiro as well. Perhaps Urgate is slightly better than Garner. O'brien over Dalot definitely. Zirkzee on par with Harrison.....so what makes United deserve even a point at Goodison Park?!
Oasis007, I am really trying not to abuse our players. I know it's hard to perform at that level but common even if it's Enyimba players, I will take over what we have here. lipsrsealed

I think you are missing the point

When a team struggles with poor results, the manager is usually the 1st casuality

E.g that's why Ten hag was sacked before his Anthony was loaned out...lol
I am saying we've been trying that experiment for years and it has proven not to work for us...why not we try something else aside changing managers alone?

I don’t get. So other clubs changing managers everytime are stupid or what? So the next reasonable thing to do is keep the current manager, overhaul with another 700m (with debt mind you) and then eventually sack the manager, with the fans asking for another set of ‘his’ players for another manager? Is not that insanity?
Let's work with facts...
1. Mention one top performing club that is busy changing managers and mention their players.
2. Then we can compare their set of players to what we currently have here.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by main24(m): 4:27pm On Feb 22, 2025
nitrogen:
lol, we needed to change the manager, and its has backfired. Simple thing is to move on to another rather than start asking for another set of players.

We should overhaul an okay team for a manager that has not even tried to use the current tool to do something meaningful. You are willing to take such risk of being back to this point after wasting another 700m overhaul spend with/on Amorim? You think money grows on trees?
Doing the same thing and expecting a different result is insanity.

The doomsday scenario here does not make sense. This team was 3rd in the EPL two years ago. They won the FA cup last season. We should stop justifying rubbish abeg.
2 years ago...football is changing rapidly, even Pep is struggling, what worked 2 years ago might not work today.

Well if it takes relegation to get us back to playing good football and wining trophies, I will wait for that. cool grin

nitrogen:
Depends on the manager. Most managers at other clubs work with whatever tool they have temporarily or even parmanently. We man utd fans invented this concept of ‘giving a manager his own players’. Does not make sense.
Mention one manager that is performing with the tools (players), he has...then compare those set of tools with this current united tools (players).

Let them start afresh and hire a new coach that after 5-10 games some people will swear has no taktiks.
lol, I believe by now it should be obvious to all that we should try something different...the experiment of changing managers has not worked for us so far.
Doing the same thing and expecting a different result is insanity.

The worst of Garnacho is way better than Bruno on the wings. You guys don’t comprehend how useless Bruno is on the wings.
Good performance breeds confidence and improvement...bad performance will do the opposite . If you want Garnacho to get better as a player, play him at his best. You can even throw in an academy player there, lol.

nitrogen:
Still cheaper to sack the manager vs changing the squad for him. We are talking 20m vs 150-200m.
Nitrogen, whichever manager you bring will want his own set of players. Leave sentiment, I believe that was why they hesitated in sacking ETH.
Whichever way they choose it will cost them,...the more they delay it or try to shortcut it, the bigger the cost.

The best is what they are currently doing...weed out the players gradually.

Immediately Garnacho entered we started having some semblance of attacking threats.

Amorim need to stop playing Bruno on the wings. Fucking play Garnacho there till the end of the season.
That experiment has been tried several times and it shows Garnacho does better coming from the bench.

Amorim is going to get sacked sooner or later, and it will most likely be sooner.

The money needed to improve the squad to the point Amorim can do anything with them is not available.
To terminate his contract, they also need money cheesy grin, and then money to hire a new coach...They won't go for an elite coach because they might not have the money for that...So they either stick with this experiment or start another one afresh. Either way, we will suffer for a long time.

Bruno played through pass towards his own goal in
Injury time. Something he has done before and cost us points.

Onana parried the ball down in front of his goal area. Something he has done before and cost us points.

Dalot allowed his man check back to his stronger foot and get a shot on target. Something he has done before and cost us points.

Maguire pulled back an opponent in the box. Something he has done before and cost us points.

All in the same sequence. They should just disband the club and build a shopping centre on the stadium’s site.
Most of this squad must leave, if not forget it...if you like bring Pep.

I already knew we were going to suffer for some time with Amorim or even any new coach and I'm not surprised. We have a bunch of sissy players. They have poor mentality, not strong enough and lack intelligence. Their passes are too slow and lack willing runners, especially off the ball. When a player is with the ball, his options are always limited because most of the rest of the team are not moving. We will need at least 4 new players to shake up the team. There is no magic any coach wants to do that will improve results here. If you like play 442 or 433, it won't make any difference.
💯sir!

He can still take the tough path, stick to his tactics and plans, get rid of these players and get his own players and the team will still be sh!t. EPL isn’t easy, most teams are strong. There’s no guarantee this team will come good, there’s no guarantee the new signings will be successful. Sad
100% true.
- We are just playing the probability game here.
- He understands his model, his success at sporting is our yardstick. There is a higher odd that he will be successful trying that given the right set of players than doing anything else.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by main24(m): 6:41pm On Jan 19, 2025
We've been here before...
- Remember when Rashford's individual brilliance carried the team under ETH? The same is happening now with Amad Diallo. No Amad magic, no party.
- ETH changed his tactics to accommodate the players, then tried building on this new tactics, it failed, he was sacked.
- Ruben Amorim is taking the tough path, if he doesn't change, stick to his plans, most of this current players have to go for his plans to work.
If they don't go, it is going to be a tougher and longer path, that is, if they don't get him sacked before the magic happens...
- But if he changes his tactics to accommodate the current players, he will be sacked faster.

lol why you dey look for me?

I am not going to stress myself over a coach that had just 2-3 sessions to introduce a new formation to his players.

There is nothing long term that can be taken from this game. Ole and Moyes both had big wins in their first matches. ETH lost his first match.
If we had won today, siddon look mode. If we had lost today, siddon look mode. We drew today, siddon look mode.

ETH system will make sure every player's flaw is displayed in HD. It is now looking like the players in other teams are perfect while the ones we have are disasters
I don't understand why this is hard for some Man U fans to see. ETH tactics is 100% flawed.
If you take ETH to the current Man city, before this season ends Man city will be playing like the current Man U.

Even if you have the wrong players, at least we should be seeing what you are trying to do.

Aside from Onana and the defenders passing the ball among themselves 300 times, and to make mouth, ETH has no idea of what he should do.
