It's really a surprise seeing Manchester United losing to Grimsby 2:0 at half time. Manchester United always find a way to disappoint their fans and at this stage I don't know if we should blame Amorin of the players. Amorin have not really been good at his job since joining the club but if the should lose this game then I don't think he is worthy of being the teams coach anymore.
The defense has been terrible but the coach is not seeing that they need to improve the defense, the team general performance is poor and the way it's going it's like Ten Hag was even a better coach than Amorim. Let's just hope they can turn things around at halftime and try to win the match, if not it will be a disgrace if they lose and get eliminated at this early stage.
If a team performs well we applaud the players more than we applaud the coach but if the team is in bad shape like the way Manchester United are we blame the coach and I agree with you that Amorim hasn't been the best manager to lead the club Manchester United, he hasn't done anything to say they have improved in certain areas. This is a game I expect Manchester United to win but losing to Grimsby 2nil is shocking to me, honestly the struggle is too much for the club at this point, if they can't beat this club, which other club can they be able to snatch 3pt from in the EPL?
I think they don't have a defensive problem that's to UTD fans, is all about the goalkeeper the blame will always go to Onana because they feel I mean the fans feel he is to blame for everything since he is the goalkeeper to stop the ball from getting in, I feel for the goalkeeper. They might draw the game because I just got a notification as I'm posting that Mbeumo just made it 2-1, there's still hope.
Can we really say that Amorim is the problem after all? Let us not forget that Ruben Amorim was successful at Sporting Lisbon before he came to Manchester United and the legacy he built in Sporting Lisbon is still working perfectly because even after he left the team, they still won trophy and till now the team is doing well. After Ruben Amorim moved to Manchester United the radiance changed and it now looks like he doesn't know what he is doing.
They are lucky to equalize the 2 goals that they conceded against Grimsby in the first half, but everything seems to be like giving a patient medicine when they are already dead because despite Manchester United leveling the score, they still lost out in the penalty shootout as Grimsby have outsmarted them out of the EFL cup.
Maybe what's happening to the other players who left the club to other club might happen to him, like if he choose to leave Manchester United that he will do well with any club he joins. Amorim is completely confused on how to balance the work load of the team, now he can't come with that morela he had at Sporting CP, they are doing well doesn't mean Amorim can shape the Red Devils to what he turned Sporting CP to, this issue of United to from where we don't know so I can't say we have to blame Amorim for all that's happening to the football club Manchester United. Imagine they can't beat Grimsby at 90'mins but still even in the shootout they lost so this is seriously hard to understand what the club needs.
