Surely Amorim has to go if these results continue

He will be he needed to start hot this season he really hasnt not convincing enough giving him saving grace will only last so long.

 

[marinersfan]

They don't like it up 'em.

 

[md85]

It's not even like it's a classic cup game where the lower league team is playing pedal to the floor and grabbing a lucky goal or two. We're being dominated and haven't had a sniff, we're playing on the counter.

 

[JamesH85]

Amorim proving to be a complete fraud.

 

[fez]

Ref going for the classic. Allow the league 2 team to play rough but hold the PL team to different standards.

 

[mid_gen]

We could easily turn this around (or perhaps not) but regardless, it still raises more and more questions.

Does it? We need a decent keeper and Ugarte/Mainoo aren’t the midfield solution. Not new problems.

 

[C Kent]

AMUSING

It might not be the solution for the Prem. But Ugarte/Mainoo should be outperforming a League 2 side.

"Are you Scunthorpe in disguise?"

 

[Raymond Lin]

Man U players are just scared, every time they get on the pitch they are scared, partly by the utter turd of a goalie at the back which does not give any confidence at all.

 

[mid_gen]

Really need to claw one back before half time. Sesko at least hitting the target, good minutes for him.

 

[Martini1991]

It might not be the solution for the Prem. But Ugarte/Mainoo should be outperforming a League 2 side.

Yeah.

If you sold either of the two you could buy the entirety of Grimsby, let alone just the football club.

 

[scarps]

Utd stinking the place out more than Grimsby fish docks

It shouldn't matter in this situation, the players just look like they have no idea what they're supposed to be doing.

 

[Bounce]

Man Utd look awful going forward no idea on how to create anything, no patterns of play, just relying on individual brilliance it seems

[engee]

Heaton on for Onana 2nd half?

 

[Lord-Jaffa]

Losing to a team with a kebab stand at the corner flag, so glad I love this team so much.

 

[mid_gen]

Positives….if we were to ditch Amorin, at least our transfer business has been good, Cunha, Mbeumo, Sesko will all work in a different system.
