To make matters worse: Amorim seems at a loss and obviously already believes that she can no longer reach the players. “We know that people are paying attention to everything at the moment, every detail and we show this performance today,” he said after the bankruptcy against Brimsby Town. “The players really spoke to me loudly today,” said the coach. “We have a game on the weekend and then two weeks,” said Amorim, with a view to the upcoming international break and predicted, we will clarify things. ” Translated that means something like: The players no longer want to play for me and I will be released soon.
It would be one of numerous coaches at Manchester United in recent years. During the 27 -year term of successful coach Alex Ferguson, who won the English championship with the club between 1986 and 2013, twice the Champions League and five times the English trophy, United was an expression of consistency and stability. In the twelve years since the Scottish resigned, United has already been nine coaches, including Louis van Gaal and José Mourinho, big names of world football. The tenth could soon follow with Amorim.
The club lost his sporting and financial dominance across the league. The conditions in the club have been criticized in many ways. Mourinho led the “Red Devils” to victory in the Europa League and won the runner -up in the 2017/2018 season – but then had to go. Later, the Portuguese, who won the Champions League and numerous other national and international titles twice in his career, described the runner-up championship with this United team as the “greatest achievement” of his career.
What appeared at first glance like the offended words of a dismissed trainer reveals itself almost as a dark prophecy with a view to United’s current situation. After Mourinho, United only reached second place once. The desired championship failed to materialize – instead, the club always went down.
