I think we are on the same page because so many people think that Manchester United will return to the top but despite that we shouldn't underestimate their performance at least let give them hope by saying they may likely get back to the top because football nowadays changes a lot and full of surprises. Quite right last season was among the worst season ever for Manchester United but despite their performance in the Premier League they really stood up in Europa League which they presented themselves as the favourite to win the league due to their excellent performance in the competition. Amorim really make a very good choice by focusing on Europa League since they know that they are not relegating but unfortunately they where defeated by Tottenham.
I don't have much hope for Manchester United, especially in the Premier League. They completely disappointed last season. I don't see any hope for them even for the upcoming season. Because there is no change in them and apart from the change of coach, there is no big change in Manchester United. We can only trust Amorim and watch Manchester United's matches to see his performance. As a coach, it is definitely important to see how much he can improve his team from the bad position. I will be happy to see them improve a little. The fight may not be easy for Ruben Amorim.
Man United actually had a chance before, but unfortunately, because of someone's greed, that opportunity was just gone like that. If only the The Glazers really left Man United and Sheikh Jassim came in to replace him, then Man United would have a very good chance to return to glory. It's a shame the Glazers don't want to let Man United go just like that, so instead of selling all its shares to Sheikh Jassim, the Glazers preferred to sell some of their shares to Jim Ratcliffe.
I think it will be difficult for any manager to bring Man United back to their former glory as long as the Glazers are still in charge.
