After the draw with Everton, Man United are still stuck in 15th place in the Premier League rankings. The team's inherent weaknesses are still exposed such as indecisive defense and harmless attack.
When bringing Ruben Amorim to Old Trafford, the "Red Devils" leadership was determined to stick with the Portuguese strategist. However, such promises from the owners were never reliable. Since Sir Alex retired, no coach has brought success to Man United in the context of everyone being promised a lot.
After cutting about 250 personnel, Man United has just announced the next downsizing with the number of 100 - 200 employees. Man United fans are starting to wonder whether among them or in the next cleings, will Ruben Amorim be named?
In 15 matches under Ruben Amorim in the Premier League, Man United have only won 15 points. Since the 40-year-old arrived at Old Trafford, his side have won just over three of their rookie games this season (all of whom are now in the red light zone).
The great Sir Alex went through a very difficult period in his early years at Man United. However, it is impossible to take the story of the 20th century as an example for the boom period of the 21st century. Everything moved faster, the pressure was heavier and the cold was also more clearly shown.
In those 15 matches, the most convincing performance for Amorim and his team was only a 2-2 draw against Liverpool. The win over Fulham was very difficult, but after drawing with Everton, Bruno Fernandes and his teammates were praised.
David Moyes almost sank his former team when Everton led 2-0. In his first and only season in charge of Man United, Moyes had a 50% chance of winning and the team finished the season in 7th place. The Scots tactician has been mocked for sacking him for that 7th place. Amorim currently has only a win rate of 27% and a disastrous 15th place.
The fighting spirit is Man United's biggest weakness at the moment. They enter every match in the same state of sluggishness. In the last 11 matches, the "Red Devils" only scored 1 goal in the first half, but the sad thing is the penalty.
When a new manager comes in, it's normal to have some players play better. However, at Old Trafford, the only one was Amad Diallo. Amorim was happy that not long after he received bad news when the Ivorian striker was injured and out for the rest of the season.
Rasmus Hojlund has not scored in the last 16 matches in all competitions while Joshua Zirkzee has also failed to score in the last 12 matches in the Premier League. The departers of Scott McTominay and Marcus Rashford are all playing well in their new jobs. It was like a vicious cycle surrounding Amorim.
Amorim's assistant team also has problems. They have moved the success formula from Sporting to Man United and are failing. The 3-4-3 formation has too many loopholes. Since Amorim disbanded Erik ten Hag's former assistant team, including Ruud van Nistelrooy, things have gotten worse. Assistant Carlos Fernandes is considered a set-piece expert, but since Amorim took charge, Man United have been the club that has lost the most set-pieces in the league.
Everton are struggling in the relegation race to suddenly revive strongly when David Moyes returns. Man United's owners believe that Amorim's pain is only temporary and everything will gradually improve. However, if the relegation scenario exists, INEOS needs to save the team first, instead of still blindly believing in Amorim.
