Or Carrick vs Amorim
Amorim has my respect. The vitriol directed at the man disgusts me.
Very unlucky manager at Utd.I can’t tell if you’re being serious.
Amorim's tactics disgust me. The vitriol directed at him has my respect.

I still cant tell if your being serious.Very unlucky manager at Utd.
Haven’t you just been slagging off our current manager?Amorim has my respect. The vitriol directed at the man disgusts me.
No. Where?Haven’t you just been slagging off our current manager?
You called him a mediocre coach and said it was jobs for the boys.No. Where?
He is currently a mediocre coach. Unless you can outline any successes he's had.You called him a mediocre coach and said it was jobs for the boys.
Really disrespectful way to talk about Carrick, to be honest. It’s disgusts me. Carrick has my respect.He is currently a mediocre coach. Unless you can outline any successes he's had.
Jobs for the boys is a behind the scenes issue. Above his brief.
Fair enough mine too but he isn't a top manager currently ,ergo mediocre. I'm a realist.Really disrespectful way to talk about Carrick, to be honest. It’s disgusts me. Carrick has my respect.
You're a cheery chap aren't youFair enough mine too but he isn't a top manager currently ,ergo mediocre. I'm a realist.
I really hate to be one of those guys, but, you could have said the same thing about many managers before they got their big break. Guardiola before becoming Barcelona manager would have been quantified as "mediocre" by some similar to when Mourinho was hired by Benfica. I am in no way shape or form saying Carrick is comparable to Guardiola though, my point is its a little early to be calling Carrick "mediocre" and "not a top manager currently" when we really don't know yet. He could be amazing or he could be crap. Its the intangibles that make a manager great or just good, and we haven't really seen whether Carrick has that extra 1% that's the difference.Fair enough mine too but he isn't a top manager currently ,ergo mediocre. I'm a realist.
Be the 1% is more apt. Probably much lower in reality.I really hate to be one of those guys, but, you could have said the same thing about many managers before they got their big break.

Unclear which reality you occupy though.Fair enough mine too but he isn't a top manager currently ,ergo mediocre. I'm a realist.
One where Utd havent challenged for a league in 12 seasons.Unclear which reality you occupy though.
It’s just weird how you’ll call Carrick mediocre but seem to be quite defensive when it comes to the worst ever manager in our history, statistically (I don’t hate him, by the way), let alone the last twelve years.One where Utd havent challenged for a league in 12 seasons.
And at the same time the reality where you think Amorim could have changed that. Its fascinating.One where Utd havent challenged for a league in 12 seasons.
I thought he was very unlucky within games, Never seen a manager be so.unlucky within games when we hammered teams but got no reward.And at the same time the reality where you think Amorim could have changed that. Its fascinating.
Well, he got himself sacked by throwing a strop, so I can't argue against him getting rid of the bad apples here.I thought he was very unlucky within games, Never seen a manager be so.unlucky within games when we hammered teams but got no reward.
He was starting to change the culture too, ditching the bad apples He made mistakes, Mainoo's lack.of playing time was a mistake but I dont think he was all bad.
This idea he needs to be booed or made out to be the bad guy is not something that interests me.
