TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR AMORIM
DURING Manchester United’s summer tour of the US, Ruben Amorim freely admitted he had used up any credit he had in the bank last season.
Despite leading United to 15th place, their worst Premier League finish, and losing the Europa League final to Tottenham, missing out on Europe, Amorim retained the backing of the United hierarchy and the club’s fans.
Against that backdrop, Amorim knew he could not afford a poor start this season.
But four points from four games, featuring a chastening 3-0 defeat by Manchester City in Sunday’s derby has added credence to the growing belief that his time at United may soon be up.
Amorim, who refuses to change his controversial 3-4-3 system despite the ongoing failure of his players to successfully adapt to it, has won just eight of his 31 Premier League games since taking over from Erik ten Hag, right, 10 months ago.
