It can be shocked information if you dig and find total money spent for player transfers by Manchester United and Chelsea recent years. It's not correct to say Manchester United did not spend big money in the last summer, so their failure in this season is partially from their failures in transfer market in the last summer and previous ones too.

But it's not about how much money the two teams spend. And if you understand what I'm saying, you won't have any excuse to compare Chelsea and Man United.

Despite Man United spending big money last summer, are the new players who came in Amorim's choice?
Compared to Chelsea who spent a lot of money to buy new players who have been selected by Enzo Maresca.

Actually it is very clear that I said that statement because it is not only about money but running a squad without having the desired players is not an easy task. So for now I will not compare the two teams which I think is very unfair and it will be fairer if we compare in the next season when Amorim has the opportunity to bring in the players of his choice.
Of course Amorim don't need to be judged with his performance this season. If we look at sporting Lisbon where he bought the players of his choice, we can clearly see that he did very well there. So it is very important that we should give him some space to finish the season provided they don't go to relegation, which is very unlikely to happen. Even  Ten Hag who brought all those inferior players at Manchester United couldn't achieve anything with them. He got his ass sacked, so anyone who is judging Amorim with this season performance of Manchester United is not being fair to the Man. It will be fair if we judge the Man when he is fully responsible for who stays at the team next season.
