For Ratcliffe, itās not only that Amorim was his pick, itās also that he kicked out the highly rated Sporting Director theyād only recently brought in, because Ashworth was against it⦠a move which itself came at great cost
A strong leader would recognize their mistake and quickly move to rectify it. These shitcunts are going to hide behind āthe previous regime fucked it all upā for another season in the vain hope that Amorim works it out and starts to win games consistently. The pressure will continue to build, and theyāll keep bailing him out with platitudes like āwe trust the process, it will take timeā and āHe took a seriously flawed team to a European Final! Heāll get it right!ā. I love it. They are so concerned with not being seen as bumbling idiots that theyāre prepared to let the whole thing burn.
Lots of reporting name Berrada as the one who really pushed for Amorim and decided Ashworth wasnt the guy once he rejected Amorim that summer. But ultimately Berrada was a Ratcliff guy and so he owns the responsibility of the pathetic shit show regardless of the precise dynamics of the situation.
Wow - Mainoo has asked to go out on loan, though that request has been rejected for now. This really raises the possibility that the situation at ManU is spiraling out of control.
