Slightly off the mark I think. He oversaw a huge team overhaul at Sporting which turned the club round. Some huge player turnover in his first season there. The United board probably saw stars with that, so much so, they ignored the things you rightly mention above.
So yeah, I’ll concede it’s still a recruitment failure.
Actually, they could have ignored that too.
I dont know…
You mean you don’t have a pair of magic socks?
I quite like Mourinho’s quote on this
“We’re in a generation where we see coaches trying to do things that just don’t work and they die,” he said. “But they say, 'I died, but I died with my idea. ’ My friend, **if you died by your ideas, you are stupid."
Also not like he invented that fricking formation in the first place. Not really that special.
Maresca to United, anyone? Premier League proven manager!
If I did I would not be working this damn job
“proven”
Well known by bothe Wilcox and Berada
They want a caretaker….
He’d do a decent jb with the changed expectations, but he’s already back at Everton
Is Groundskeeper Willie actually David Moyes?
Carrick, Ole and Fletch walk into a bar…
Oh yeah…this cannot fail, guaranteed success.
So the bloke in charge today went to Old Bacon Face for his blessing like some weird Godfather sequel, and the bloke who will be in charge next week had a preferred midfield of McFred?
@Nikola…give it to me straight, like a pear cider made from 100% pears.
They are the luckiest club in the world - they’ll qualify for CL at our expense, the difference will be their win at Anfield, and Amorim will get retrospective praise from their fans! Can’t get any more straight than that!
If we lose the CL qualification to Darren Fletcher, we might as well as shut down.
On a more realistic note, what are the odds that both us and them go after Luis Enrique in the summer?
For them to have cleared the decks in this way, they presumably have someone (or at least several people) in mind and can now show definitively there is a vacancy and you would expect someone like Enrique to be at the top of many clubs wish lists
It’s a world cup year though so there could be a lot of movement amongst managers this summer anyway.
If they were a well run club perhaps but they are talking about a caretaker for a caretaker manager.
Man Utd aren’t the kind club to make decisions like this with a clearly thought through strategy in mind
