Amorim will only be able to start working at Manchester United on November 12, because he still has three official games to work for Sporting. So van Nistelrooy will still have the opportunity to play as Manchester United head coach, it will be three games (two in the APL and one in the Europa League). And the next game will be at Old Trafford against Chelsea, a very important game considering the good form Chelsea are in, if Manchester can beat Chelsea like that, I will start to think that it really was about ten Hag.
Well, let's see what happens later when United faces Chelsea. if their interim coach manages to motivate the players and get good results in the match later, of course, all the harsh criticisms of Ten Hag are true.
United needs a lot of points to catch up at this time. Chelsea has performed better and if they can beat Chelsea, I'm sure the confidence of the players and also the fans will improve. a job that will not be easy but Nistelrooy should not have the pressure to make his players play better when they destroy Leicester.
Chelsea are doing well currently; we all know that, and if we should follow how Manchester United performance was going before sacking Erik Ten Hag, then I would say we should be expecting Chelsea to beat Manchester United for sure. But since they have a new manager now, we don’t know what type of strategy he will come with,
so we can’t conclude for now till then. But you are right with what you said; if they later fail to do as expected, the criticism on Erik Ten Hag will be in their head again. But let's wait and see what will happen when they meet with Chelsea, but United have a lot of hard work to do to meet up the points.
