Mrviktor:
The fact that I don't even understand the formation again.

I wonder how the players are feeling also

I also don’t, and I’m scared they would score against us soon the way things are going.

Amad can still be a threat with his yellow. This Amorim sef

To please you guys na problem o. The manager isn’t taking chances like he did recently, where we all went against him. We are on a defensive mode now guys.

We should be looking to finish Chelsea before the break. They already removed all their attackers. We still have 3 CB and a Case that doesn't have pace anymore and will most likely foul you since he can't keep up. This has always been his style recently. It's well known and documented.

Finally we should not be looking to just control the game. We should looking very dangerous. Remove a defensive player and bring in an attacker, someone that can drive the ball like Mainoo

My brother, this team has no confidence at all. We can only manage games for now.

We are already panicking

If not that Amorim is stupid, why will he leave Casemiro and Maguire on the pitch, especially Maguire. He wasn't needed anymore

Most managers would have done the same thing till the half time, sir. Case with all the experience should have been smarter. It’s easy to blame the manager, but Case who is supposed to be one of the coaches on the pitch huh

?

We were just supposed to control the game. Mnxxx

At this rate, na to just dey check the full-time scores like I did last season. My kids are too young to lose me over a club that will only get serious when it's sold to serious owners. Nigerian politicians are angels compared to the owners we have in this club.

Only people winning here are the Glazers... they always win.

We can just look at it from a positive angle. The expectation now is for the club to do their business early.

Any info on the Gyokeres front and outgoings?

I have some reservations on Gyokeres. I just hope he proves me wrong

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by metodman(m): 10:58am On Feb 24, 2025

I respect some of you that are still watching our games religiously. I stopped watching after Amorim's second match, after I realized that he will seriously and urgently need experts in key areas of the team, something we do not have. I hope the owners who employed him are aware of this fact. He needs serious support!

BTW, it is now obvious that we were severely played by the Glazer family and their puppet (Jim Ratcliffe). The state of the club is shockingly sad.

I have only seen YouTube videos myself tbh..

From an attacking Perspective, He seems better than all our current options at WB. Another point worthy of note is that he is able to play on both flanks (strange for a left footed, natural WB)

it looks like he still needs quite some polishing though - that "street football" sense still full him head

You are spot on.... That 'gidigbo' kind of style. I hope he's what we need.

Why give him money for showing some kind gestures? Isn't it supposed to be free?

He didn't ask. We just felt the need to appreciate his kind gestures.

Travel › Re: A South African Lady Apologizes To Nigerians After Visiting Nigeria by metodman(m): 6:52pm On Dec 28, 2024

I think my wife will share the same sentiment with the lady.

I'm currently in Nigeria with my South african Pedi wife, kids and my mother in-law. Yesterday, on our way to Abuja, we boarded a Bolt car ride to take us to the Lagos Airport. Unfortunately for us, my wife gave my 11month old girl her phone to play with but the phone dropped along the way. We didn't notice. We only noticed about three hours after, when we were already in Abuja.

To cut the long story short, we got the phone back from the driver. In fact, he had been trying to reach us for hours. We were so happy to get back the phone (even if the S23 phone is still with my family in Lagos). Of course, we gave him some money, though I wish I had given him more. I was so proud of my people.

It was obvious when we employed him that we would need lots of patience.... it's still obvious. Our players are not used to fast game like this, and have always struggled against players that drive at them with pace. The players must sit up.... The coach is great....players are not.

Not sure we can show such poor quality in the final 3rd for so long and expect Amorim to come through and just fix it.

Amateurish level.

ten Hag also made some of those Ajax players look better than they were, until he got to the hot seat in the EPL, and bone choked his throat.
So many things that are being said about Amorim were being said about ETH 2 years ago.

Once bitten, forever shy. Siddon look mode activated.

I agree with you. I'm also trying to be very careful, because I don't wanna get burnt again. I also dont see much difference between the two. I'm just hoping he doesn't change his football philosophy las ETH did. I would like to see his in-game management, especially when his team is losing. That's another area where ETH was poor.

I just pray he triumph over the many challenges coming ahead.

Who else is watching Sporting play?

They played some different variations of 3-4-3. They defended with 5 defenders and attacked with 3 attackers, sometimes 4. Even though the defenders were exposed a few times, the system generally made the players looked better than they are, and I think we have lacked that over the years. You would think some of their players are better than what we currently have, but I disagree.

Gyökeres was a monster. He reminds me of Vardy, with smart runs and positioning. He seem to be a clinical striker also. Højlund has a lot to learn still.

I want to believe Utd has been in contact with Amorim before now.

No way they just started talking yesterday.

Definitely brother. I think this is the result of their deafening silence after the meeting they had during the last international break.

I'm very happy that ETH is gone....cautiously optimistic about Amorim.

We should not have ETH as our manager by tomorrow morning, but then, I need to trust the structure and process.

They had the best opportunity to sack him during the last International break and they did nothing. If they were half-ruthless as they did with non-players, we would probably be in a better situation today.

Now West Ham are more likely to score and win. What a shame

They sat back in the first half, so we had more possession. It made it look like we played well, but we didn't. Now the Hammers are attacking more and we are not able to deal with them. Our players are playing like they have given up on ETH.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by metodman(m): 4:00pm On Oct 27, 2024

During his first year, we struggled to score goals....We bought a very young player who was mostly a substitute and who had not scored enough goals to be the main striker for this team.

Last season we didn't score enough goals as well, yet ETH thought the best striker he could bring in to sort out the poor goal-scoring issue was to bring in Zirkzee.... WE ARE STILL STRUGGLING TO SCORE GOALS....yet, ETH is still here and same issue still persists.

The so-called structure stills need to prove to us that they are the right people for the job. The structure is currently looking worrisome.

The only thing I can say in favour of ETH today is that he doesn't seem to have lost the players.

If there's one lesson I have learnt with ETH, don't get too carried away with one game. Many times, we have looked good because our opponents made us look so.

Three vital points today though. Kudos to the entire team.
