He is trolling - na Liverpool fan

Ah, I see. We don suffer sha.

Oasis007:


......we saw what he did at Sporting Lisbon.

Sporting? Abeg, go and touch grass outside. You just dey gba with your takes, you need some sunlight.

Bombblacks:
The only manger we have signed and didn't improve us immediately was Amorim. You all keep peddling this narrative that sacking managers have not improved us which is a big fat lie. Some of you are just waiting for the next Ferguson who would stay here for 15years. Van gaal gave us top 4 and a trophy, Mourinho gave us top 2 and two trophies, Ogs had us finishing top 3 in back to back seasons and an European final, Erik finished top 4 and two trophies. So where's the narrative coming from that changing underperforming managers at United have been a failure. All clubs sack Managers that are not performing. If slot starts slacking and drops to 8th or thereabout Liverpool won't hesitate to sack him. Tottenham didn't hesitate to sack Ange who won them their first trophy in over fifteen years. Some of you are just too sentimental.

Naso now, and their yansh no dey stay for one place. Always running around like bush gods.

Silentgroper:
buy they say no player is bigger than a club..

So why Shoiu the egos of those player be tolerated over the good of the club..

Isn't the same ego issues the reason rashford, garnacho and Co are being booted out...

Lol, tell that to Madrid, Barca etc. See what Vini did last week after Alonso benched him? These days, a manager needs to find ways to manage egos. Players are bigger than coaches nowadays and there is nothing anyone can do about it. If you get strong head as a manager, you will lose out on talents and won’t be successful. It is what it is!

Silentgroper:
He might not be versatile on formations . .
He learn work using 343 and na the only thing very him sabi be that ..

Besides, I feel like using 4atb renders dorgu useless in the team .. He doesn't look like he would be good at LB

That’s why he should continue to do 3-4-3, because it’s the only thing he knows, and because of Dorgu? Have you eaten today?

Oasis007:


......Sir Alex finished 14th in his first season and 2nd in his second season. Amorim finished 15th in his first season and who says he ain't gonna finish in top 4 this season?!

No signs!

Sportsweb:
It took Sir Alex Ferguson 5 years to get things right.

It took Klopp 5 years to get things right.

It took Arteta 5 years before he started competing for the league.

It took Pep 2 years & that’s because he had an unlimited budget.

Ruben Amorim deserves more time.

So, Klopp, Arteta, Pep and Alex were close to relegation in those years? These examples don’t make sense, unless you are trolling us.

odizeey:
It's just funny. Let's be real abeg. With the way things are, any coach will come here and struggle. Chelsea didn't even need to sign Garnacho. But they signed him. Them dey sign for fun. Sign and send on loan. I think they also wanted to sign Ensicio from Brighton and send on loan. Laying foundation for a coach to come and work.

We neither lay foundation or support coaches with adequate results but we the fans will come and blame coaches. We just need to wake up. If Amorim is sacked we will still find ourselves in this same situation. The new coach might go back to 4-3-3 but will still find ourselves struggling to enter top 6.

With the way the board is moving, it's better to just stick to one coach that can do his rubbish till it works.

If they want to hire and fire, let them do it like others are doing it.

You don’t mind us relegating as well? Which would you prefer, stick with Amorim and battle relegation or change manager to improve our chances of making top 10?

•For manager joining newly at a big club, public condemnation of your players in big 2025 would most likely cause more harm than good. It is even worse when the manager has ZERO EXPERIENCE managing big egos, superstars and Global household names. The "Hey guys, a new sherrif is in town. Y'all better shape up or ship out" approach would work better at places like Sporting where the players are relatively unknown, and the club under less scrutiny.

•There was absolutely no reason for his disparaging comments about Rashford in the public domain. It was so bad that he kept on talking about the fella even when that one had joined Villa. He literally made the whole thing look personal with his constant tirades and comments.
Guess who couldn't resist the urge to talk about Antony's performances at Betis?

•One would have thought that he was in a transitional phase at that time, only for him to open his big mouth and chat shít about Maino just last week. Did he need to insinuate that he is unfit for the system? Was the remark about him competing with Bruno for a slot necessary? I keep on wondering what has happened to the Normal "XYZ is a good player - there are enough games to go round for everyone" Mantra.

•Labelling your team as the worst in the history of the club,talking about endless suffering and threatening the players with clear outs would almost always complicate things at a big club. It is worse when the manager in question is new and has NO pre existing PEDIGREE or REPUTATION per say.

•All i see is a man trying to instill FEAR in his players. An Emotionally intelligent manager would be more concerned with RESPECT, especially under the aforementioned circumstances.

Thankfully, the man is aware that he can't change 22 players!

Leave them to their opata yarning. Amorim good at man management? Tah! Where is the evidence? His time at a relatively unknown Sporting CP with no single star player? Seems people underestimate what man management means at popular and big clubs.

Any manager out there is better than Amorim.

Jokerman:
Bring Back Michael Carrick and Ruud Boy, if you are gonna sack Amorim

Or better still Conte, to stabilise the team.

Conte as well. But he’ll ask for a lot of money and a 3 year contract.

Jamiuokolaa:
Which available manager fits that criteria?

Not sure Ancelotti would leave Brazil NT job before the WC.

Tbh, Carlo won’t be easy to poach right now unless we want to spend big and give him a 3 year contract, which is a gamble given what has been happening over the years. Unfortunately, there is none that fits the criteria.

I would go with Luciano Spalletti who I believe will be very happy to take the role on an interim basis. He is quite matured and tactically astute. Although he also prefers 3 at the back but he’s quite flexible, vs Amorim.

dreamxhaser:
I mean, when you are getting outplayed by a fourth division team, it's not just the coach anymore... Even with dumb tactics a premier league team can't be losing to a fourth division team

Lol. This your assertion is funny. The way the team is set up determines how it will perform. Imagine starting with 5 defenders, keeping a 2-man midfield and having 2 out of the 3 attacking players mostly on the wings, what the eff was that? How are you going to control/determine/dominate play and create chances with that?

If Amorim had gone with a standard 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation and/or allowed the players to express themselves against the 4th division team, the outcome would have been completely different.

seunpinky:
At this point, Man U needs to get on an interim basis an experienced coach who can steady the ship, win the dressing room, work with the available players and has a track record of getting results. Someone in the mould of Guus Hiddink, Carlo Ancelloti, Jupp Heynckes

Hehe, shey I suggested Carlo a few months ago and some people were jesting about it. We need an agba manager that has achieved a lot, just for 1-2 years.

patrickmuf:
Since Fergie retired, the club has refused to fixed the midfield...

We got Casemiro when he was past his prime, same with Eriksen etc...

Lies!

odizeey:
Everybody just dey hide for crowd dey mix up like say them no back Amorim. 🤣🤣

Grimsby team is valued at EUR3.6m. Imagine!

If we like, we score 4 goals during extra time, na wash!

Amigoss:
Comeback dey this match,write off Amorim at your own risk

Write off Amorim? Against this 4th division team?

TrebleChamp:
Xabi Alonso that played 352 at Bayern Leverkusen and won them the Bundesliga, switch to 433/442 system immediately he joined Real Madrid. This stubborn Man is sticking to his 343 system that is not working at United, Ratface should have taken Dan Ashworth advice...

Nah, a manager must stick to his belief and system. We hired him based on the said system. No way!

Jamiuokolaa:
Why?

Isn't it too early?

Didnt we play well against Arsenal?

Haven't we bought players?

Relax brother...more players are coming in!

kizolo:
This is the original fear fear formation
2 midfielders should do everything while 5 defenders just position and not allowed to jump in. Even prime Ngolo Kante and Makele will suffer in this formation. Your striker will suffer with this formation due to no service. Even you, the fan will suffer!!

The new signings and all the fans are already suffering. My major issue is Amorim’s stubbornness. His managerial career won’t last if he continues like this.

Jamiuokolaa:
The season has gone already because the new coach would need a pre season + his own players abi no be so we agree for here?

Wahala, new/remodelled training centre, etc. We die there!

Silentgroper:
Highline will sort this amorim formation out ..


I'm sure of it..

The whole set up is worse than ETH’s donut midfield.

seunpinky:
Nitrogen is somewhere reading this thread and laffing his ass out 😂

It’s a sad situation. But wetin man wan do?

Leyqute:
This guy has 5 defenders on the pitch and none of them are doing anything tangible. It’s the midfield 2 that is expected to mark, defend, cover ground, and launch and join attacks. Na slavery? Even if you put prime Scholes and Roy Keane in tha midfield, they are still going to suffer.

This guy does not know what he is doing. At all.

Loool, how was your night? You will be fully awake soon.

AirBere:
Nitrogen, I greet you bros

My brother, I don too suffer for here. Some stubborn Amorim boys will still blame the midfield for what’s going on today.

Englishisamust:
These our coach na big cruise we will do this and that before we start playing is rubbish .. Always giving mumu excuse!!!

Sack the fraud, Behead the fraud, Burn the fraud

So we should be in league 3? Werey!

He scores zero in everything. Style, set-up, selection substitutions, in game management, man management, etc.

Just imagine ‘bad-mouthing’ and ‘hair-drying’ players you are hoping to sell. Someone here actually referenced Fergie, Pep etc and their treatment of egoistic players. Lol, these guys were/are winning trophies at the highest level and in the best leagues/Europe, and even at that, they still tried/try to find ways to live with them. Who is Amorim? What has he achieved? Nonsense!

Mrviktor:
Amad was allowed to stay forward multiple times.. I saw that..

My problem is with them not creating anything.. that was why dalot came on.. Shaw and dorgu were having a very brilliant game. That dey didn't even need Cunha and he could drift inside..

Amad and mbuemo were too far apart. Mount and Cunha were drifting..Bruno also, so our only stagnant wing was mbuemo and amad.. when mbuemo is on the ball amad is too far away. I didn't see any overlap like from dorgu.. the guy can't play wingback so we should stop forcing him to do it.. look for a better player to fix there let mbuemo and amad drag for the right wing..

It's just too early to be lamenting.. I'm tired already..

At this rate amori won't finish the season. He's already under pressure

Before the game, I said it here that Amad should not be competing with Dalot for that wingback position, an Amorim faithful was asking me to shalaye further, in a bid to defend Amorim. Most of our players including the new ones cannot play the nonsense style Amorin is imposing on them. That stubborn mfker is wasting everybody’s time.

Ellexy:
E don hibernate

Don’t mind him. Baba was so optimistic delusional after the 200m spend, thinking our problem will be solved.

larride:
Make Una begin state where Una dey for different agenda oo

We no want dey see amala turning when season start oo and the agenda no favor you again.

Make everybody sha leave nitrogen for me.

Come out o! Wait, we will give Amorim more time. Let’s catch up in December.
