Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher believes. That the situation of Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim is not likely to last long. Because in addition to his performances being stable and declining. His players have little respect for him, as seen from his language in the last period.
Amorim replaced former manager Erik ten Hag in November. But has struggle to make an impact, winning just five of his 16 Premier League games. And crashing out of the FA Cup at the fifth round.
Or like yesterday when they only managed to draw 1-1 with Real Sociedad in the Europa League last 16. With Alejandro Garnacho. The team’s player, getting upset and squirming. Or the lack of consistency between the teams of Diogo Dalot and Rasmus Hojlund.
A slew of external and internal problems have Carragher suggesting that the 40-year-old may simply be dropping by to boost his profile at Old Trafford towards the end of the season.
“This is the worst Manchester United team I’ve ever seen in my life. Or at least Amorim’s arrival seeme better than Ten Hag’s. But the truth is it’s not showing in any concrete way. The Telegraph Football article read.
“United players don’t really embrace his 3-4-2-1 football philosophy. Are there any players who look better than they did under Ten Hag?
“Managing one of the biggest clubs in the world is about whether you can swim or sink.
“Just on the job front, there is no confirmation yet whether Manchester United will consider Amorim to be in the position before the start of next season… It is still a while away.”
“But the club’s co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the Red Army fans have every right to expect more.”
The Red Devils ‘ only hope of success in the Europa League is to find a way into the quarter-finals in the second leg against Sociedad next Thursday (13 March ). Because their Premier League performance in England is at risk of relegation .
