Ruben Amorim | 2025-26

2025 and we're still seeing the 3 amigos in backline away at Anfield with no striker on the pitch. If this ends up being a loss, there's a lot more questions to be asked.

First one from me would be.

How would you like your contract terminated? Ripped or set on fire?
 
Relieved to see Amad starting at RWB. Thought he’d revert back to his ultradefensive 5-man defence. Maybe he has learned something.
 
That lineup. Just feck off.

I truly hate this manager.

Cannot wait for the day he’s sacked.
 
Cowardly line up. He may as well come out waving a white flag. I know he fancies Mount but seriously messing Sesko around when he's started to score is shocking.

Based off what Jimbo said I think the earlier and realistic timeframe he could be sacked is end of the season.
 
No Yoro and Dorgu is insane.

Mazroaui if he's coming back from injury would be understandable.

Shaw over Heaven given Shaws recent form is not the one either.

Good luck to Amorim and pulling this off with this lineup.

Dropping Sesko is a huge gamble too. There's no doubt that United fans would pick a different lineup. See how it goes.
 
An absolute ridiculous line up that sums up this cowardly manager. He has zero trust in the young players. How Dalot, Shaw & Maguire start this game is mind boggling.

We are playing with 4 number 10s.
 
Oh my...

Last match I thought he made some changes in the right direction so I was happy to see that (although it wasn't fully what I would have liked).

But this? Just leave please.
 
How does the team have a chance to gel when it's being chopped and changed every fecking week.

Clueless manager. It will be absolute tonking today by the way - by 5 or 6 goals.
 
Team looks about as good as it could be. Sesko off the bench in a game like this is probably the way to go.

Tough game, we'll need some luck. Otherwise this is gonna be a busy old thread tonight.
 
What the feck is this lineup?!Maguire starting, no Sesko who scored twice in his last games for us, Mount as false nine and midfield of Bruno and Casemiro who is going to get ripped by Slobozlai, Gravenberch and Mac Alister!And all this in 3421 formation.
Trust the process, I suppose.
 
Last game I thought he messed up the team selection was Chelsea and we did alright there. Might need a red card to fully replicate that result but hopefully he knows something about a few of the questionable starters today. Really hate the Dalot obsession though.

The team looks absolutely mental. I hope it works but it's so weird. Diallo as a right wing back (again)? No number 9? Shaw in the back three? I want us to go out and for it to work so bad but it's gonna be more ammo against Amorim if it doesn't. Mason Mount also starting ostensibly as our furthest forward player too? There's no outlet. No idea how this is gonna go.
 
Not starting your in-form new striker away at Anfield is a special type of brainless.

Not sure I would call him "in form". He's playing well, but the two goals were fairly straightfoward opportunities where he was in the right place at the right time and most would've put both away.

Strikers who are out of form have a habit of not being in the right Spot when it matters and/or messing up the finish. So I would say Sesko is in form.
 
A very negative, anxious, defensive minded manager.

Even if we win, its clear we are planning to play this game as the underdogs against our rivals. Poor tactics, choices & management.

I can't wait until he's gone, I really hope I don't have to wait 3 years.
 
Post Liverpool New
We just beat Liverpool at Anfield.

Don't forget to sack the manager.
 
Back to back PL wins for the first time for Amorim !! Against Liverpool at Anfield too!!! :drool:

Went alright, I thought!

Difficult to take you seriously.
 
I’m still Amorim out but fair play to him. Sealing his first back-to-back win at Anfield :lol:
 
Sat off them way too early in the second half and the subs were mostly shite but a huge win in the end.
 
Well what do i know, got his selections and subs right for most part, outside of not taking bruno off at like the 60 min mark got most of the decisions spot on.
 
Credit where it's due. Big result winning at Anfeld. Hopefully, he can kick on from here.
