When the shit hits the fan, and they've got the wrong man, that's Amorim!

We’ll have to see if that’s the formation, but a 3-4-3 does have two spots for Fernandes. Though which side will also depend on Rashford.

It actually wasn’t as quick as I remembered, my memory was clouded by another lineup posted by another fella (with Shaw in it…LOL!).

Just for a start, Mainoo should probably be where Garnacho is.

They may as well play Maguire as a forward if they play a high line like that.

Tell ya what… If it is Amorim coming in at this stage of the season, not knowing the pace of the PL, the fixture congestion, shit refereeing, mixed bag of showboaters, media gaze well and truly upon him, living in hotel or makeshift accommodation first few months, all at only 39yrs of age - just how good are his man-management skills for stirring up some passion from the players and fans, immediately…? or, is he more of a slow-burn, winning people over eventually, as in late March etc
If this guy does not hit the ground running… they could be in a relegation dog-fight before we know it, with European qualification nothing but a mirage :0)

Replacing Slot seems decent planning.

This seems like a panic. I think I’d have left RVN in charge. He might do very well but they are going spend loads more.

Also why are they head coaches and yet have so much power in buying players.

That’s something that definitely does not adversely affect the Manchester clubs.

If you draw lines through dots
Of fewer goals got than shot
That’s Amorim

He’ll try the high press
But Antony needs rest
That’s Amorim

He’ll try a back three
But one is Harry
That’s not for him

Please stay in touch

They also invested heavily in Ugarte, another player who Amorim turned into a big sale for Sporting. I assume that they will also go for that centre back of theirs who we get linked with every summer.

Well, the core thought these line ups keep creating is ‘when your defenders are crap, you probably need more than three of them’.

Of all the things Klopp did with us, coming into a demoralized side midseason, with a group not well aligned to play his brand of football, and got performances out of them from day 1.

Secondly, throughout that first season there were so many opportunities to protect himself from the downsides of the approach, but he committed to it as part of the process and took the bad results that came with it on the chin. Those who were granted a stay were better for the experiences.

Won the CL with Porto and was so obviously on another level tactically.

I reckon Amorim flames out in less than two years. Quote me on this.
