I will always stand behind him. Fuck Amorim and all yous clueless fan.

Even when Paul Scholes was trying to push that narrative, David Ornstein had to correct the agenda against Rashford.

“It’s a shame that Marcus Rashford left Manchester United”

Could Rashford still be at Man Utd next season? 🧐

[Mctom_enthusiast @Carrick_stan]

He should definitely stay at Man Utd. Hoping Carrick made the right decision.

[3.14 @txmwa]

We all saw Rashford right? cos if he had a bad game. Certain accounts would have been uploading clips with silly captions.

[United & Everything Football @UEF_Podcast]

💭 Spent months trying to hard to explain this fans who chose pettiness over the truth. That the club wanted Rashford gone long before Amorim even came into the picture and the player himself knew. After our FA cup success under ten Hag he shed tears knowing that summer was his last and he should have left there and then. Staying beyond that when the club wanted high earners like him and Casemiro(who was dropped entirely for the FA Cup final) off their books was a recipe for disaster. Like Ten Hag’s situation with Ronaldo it was clear the coaches had been instructed to find ways to get them out. If you half know anything about football you will know that’s how the business side of it is taken care off. Ronaldo and Rashford left knowing the club more than the coaches involved wanted them out cos of their wages. Casemiro decided against clear attempts to move him to Saudi Arabia or MLS to stay and in the end played himself back into contention but in doing so exhausted the entire duration of his contract. Many say Casemiro should have chosen to give us one more year forgetting the club had the option to extend his contract by a year but refused to trigger it. 🤷🏽‍♂️ For some of us we choose not to have selective memory. Not bits and parts of the truth but the entire truth.

[Robert Stephenson @robstephenson]

@RioMeets @rioferdy5 @Airbnb There is something of contradiction in the way that even a player he was keeping out of the team speaks of Rashford in glowing terms, and the narrative many #MUFC fans promote, which is that he is a poisonous influence on the dressing room. Something doesn't quite add up, does it

[Mctom_enthusiast @Carrick_stan]

@Hosang No matter how many data you feed us, Amorim not ever gonna give us the champion league. Not in a million years. Chelsea imploded this year same as liverpool. You dont think we would implode even worse under Amorim? No amount of data will save us.

[Mctom_enthusiast @Carrick_stan]

Im beginning to warmed up towards him. He can be shit in front of goal but he does the other 90% of things well enough. Maybe he just needed a good coach after all.

[MS15 @Sarfo15M]

No idea why match going fans hate him (I do they’re dumb) special player in the first 2 thirds of the pitch

[Red Marrow @RedMarrow_]

This came after Fletcher couldn't beat Brighton in the FA Cup. It is tedious, but for the sake of my sanity, I am revisiting the tweet at the end of the season as promised.

The new manager Carrick ended up with a 70.58% win rate, far greater than Amorim's 31.9%.

I dug a little deeper to find out what the underlying numbers say (as apparently only those matter to some people), so here are the results:

Amorim (Aug 17, 2025-Jan 4, 2026):

Wins: 8 (6th)
Points: 31 (6th)
Goals scored: 34 (3rd)
Goals conceded: 30 (14th)
xG: 38.82 (3rd)
xGA: 28.29 (8th)
xPts: 33.98 (5th)

Carrick (January 17, 2026-May 24, 2026):

Wins: 12 (1st)
Points: 39 (1st)
Goals scored: 33 (1st)
Goals conceded: 18 (5th)
xG: 30.85 (6th)
xGA: 21.67 (3rd)
xPts: 28.74 (3rd)
(Source: Understat)

Barring xG, Carrick beats Amorim in every metric. The biggest gainers being goals prevented and defensive stability.

I dug further to check what those big xG numbers under Amorim actually meant:
A big chunk of the xG came in situations where the opposition scored against United early and then sat back and defended.

For example: Man City 3-0 Man Utd. On paper, United had an xG of 1.51 vs. City. But 1.45 (96%) of that came after United had already gone 3-0 down, and City had no issue defending the lead.

Similarly, Brentford 3-1 Utd: 2.07 (95.4%) of United's 2.17 xG came after going 2-0 down to Brentford.

Utd 0-1 Everton at Home in December: 1.57 of the 1.71 xG came after going 1-0 at home to 10-man Everton. Everton had no problem giving Utd the ball and defending.
(Source: Opta Analyst)

So all those shouting Amorim had better xG should take game states into consideration as well.

The lesson to be learned here is you shouldn't let agendas blind you to the obvious, so much so that you stop enjoying wins under the new manager. One of the best decisions Utd made was sacking Amorim (however inadvertently), and that effectively changed the course of our season.

(And this is me permanently done with Amorim 🚮).

@UnofficialPund1 He can fuck off for all I care. He doesnt care about us, he very much told us about it. Why do we have to care about him then.

Hes a toxic character and deseeved to be hate.
