Nottingham's end of season goals are much higher than Manchester United's, they are aiming to finish this season in the top 4 and to do that they can't drop points, especially against opponents like Manchester United when they are still finding their game. It seems to me that Amorim has also started to doubt his ability to change something in the team, and although they tell him that he will get enough time, they told ten Hag the same thing.
So are you saying that it is a trap giving him hope that he’ll have more chances in the team even as he’s performing poorly now as the manager of the team? I doubt so though, the signing of this manager was not such an easy one for Manchester United and they had to pay off huge amount on money to Sporting Lisbon to get him here, they should at least benefit from his signing.
Nottingham Forest is not a team to toy with this season, they stand a better chance and play much better than Manchester United this season. They know the flaws of Manchester United and also know that winning the game will give them more hope to maintain the position on the top four of the table, so they will try their possible best to finish in top four this season.
Manchester United should work on their game from next season because it seems they can do little to none this season rather than putting efforts in the premier league that won’t yield any result now. Their focus is in the Europa League more and I think that is where they will get the more chances to secure a title more this season.
