Must be a huge pram given the number of toys already thrown!
Ruben Amorim | 2025-26

Didn't we have a press conference liason or someone when Ten Hag was here? Was s/he fired for cost reduction?
She left I think. Can’t recall if of her own accord or not.
Someone needs to coach him on how to handle questions. He seems emotionally unstable.
Do you think it's sane behaviour then?
i played for a Portuguese coach....they are VERY emotional and the passion they have for football a lot of times takes over both with actions and words....many times he would tell us that he hated us a players bc we didn't live up to the standards expected of us
him saying this is not a great surprise because he is so desperate to win for United
I've (genuinely) got Bipolar. Up and down, emotions all over the place and very impulsive. The impulisivity is probably what makes him come out with these things before putting his brain into gear. Me and Ruben are one and the same.

Does the coach play three at the back? otherwise no chance.
You really will defend him to the hilt
Do you never get annoyed or frustrated or angry?
I didn't see anything wrong with anything he said. He gets a little emotional at times, but at least he's being authentic.
Bit of a tap in but I"ll spare a
Yes but wouldn't display it so clearly in public
My reaction from the opening of Amorim's press conference today:
You've never in your life let the emotions get the better of you?
Thank god it wasn't just me thenMy reaction from the opening of Amorim's press conference today:
He seems done. His demeanor during the Grimsby debacle, the cowering and avoiding of PKs and now these drama queen-esque comments. I think a quick separation would be best for all parties involved. We can try to salvage our season and he can find a job better suited for his capability.
Exactly. Makes it even more believable that he said that statement about him needing to find a new club in a stupid way.
People who describe his passion as refreshing are missing the key fact that this is our manager, and he clearly lacks insight into how to manage people. Hint: it's not by wearing your heart on your sleeve 24/7.
Yes but I'm not managing one of biggest clubs in world
Nothing to do with liking him, it's about how successful he is. You can say what you want when you're winning games, people won't care. But when you're not and you've been as unsuccessful as he has, the pressure and the spotlight is amplified.
That too. Big overlap with success and being liked.
He's not a robot. Sometimes you lose your shit and to be fair it was probably justified the other night.
What he said wasn't even that bad. He didn't single any individuals out.
The BBC is garbage.
All this focus on his quotes when his refusal to look at penalties and corners should be the main issue apart from the results. Did anyone ask him about this?

I for one am all in favour of embracing his emotional ups and downs. We need a bit of that. Reminds me of Fergie criticizing Aberdeen for winning a trophy playing sh*te. Or even Clough.

And an incredibly different situation. We aren’t even Tottenham last season a decent side suffering from huge injuries and kamakase football. We are shyte with poor players who think they are bigger than the club and need getting rid of. I actually think Eth bought all his old players to build he’s own team for the dressing room not the pitch. The lot from last season bar a couple need shipping out before we will start making real progress.
He also said sometimes he hates his players and near the end of the clip I watched even said sometimes he hates his kids.
I'm not sure this guy is mentally stable enough for this job to be honest.
It was fine. That interview didn't alter the dial for anyone who hadn't already made their minds up.
And one is seen as 'God" and the other as "Oh my God"!
That press conference was a let down.
It would be one hell of a turnaround for him to make a success of things at United. Naturally any right minded supporter doesn't want us to be in this position and wants us out of it as quickly as possible.
In an ideal world, Amorim would be the man to deliver that - so far it doesn't look promising but I guess we can only live in hope and the performances his United put in against Liverpool, City, Arsenal etc becomes the standard regardless of who we play.

Of course. It wasn't even clear what he meant anyway.
It probably sounded worse because he was obviously trying to find the words in English to express himself properly.
Of course they did. Amorim makes it easy for them. What does he hope to achieve by saying these things.
I doubt that there is a parent anywhere that hasn't said they hate their kids at some point, they don't necessarily mean it but they have said it, especially when said kids were/are teenagers
My post was overly exaggerative but I don't think it's normal to flip flop to the degree he does. It's at the very least, not common.
It's not literal ffs.
His presser comments are certainly dividing opinion
Yeah, evidently we have some emotionless superhumans among the United fans.
