Amad scored 10 goals under Ruben Amorim while playing as a wing-back.
United's big accounts: "Amorim is ruining Amad. Play him as a winger!"
Amorim gets sacked, Carrick takes over, and after 10 months of playing Amad as a right winger, he has zero goals.
United fans: "Amad is shit." 😂
The funniest part? The same people who blamed Amorim for misusing him are now blaming the player instead of questioning the system. 😂
Official: Patrick Dorgu is returning to #mufc from the Denmark camp after a series of tests concluded he needed more time to recover from his hamstring injury [@dbulandshold]
@utdAdams@kiddo_utd The biggest retard in the fanbase I don’t understand how some of this fanbase listens and agrees with the bullshit that he puts out there. Definitely not a United fan either just wants engagements
🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: Manchester United appoint Mauricio Pochettino as new head coach, here we go!
Deal done and green light from US Federation as Poch has agreed all terms on Wednesday.
New era at #MUFC. 🆕🇦🇷
Every single player thanked Amorim on IG with a personal message after he was sacked. There were only two who didn’t.
Players who thanked Carrick:
- Lacey
- Mainoo
- Dorgu
- Fletcher
- Maguire
All the other key players did not.
Make of that what you will.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe will one day have to explain why Manchester United didn’t follow Michael Carrick’s recommendation of the four players he felt the club needed in the summer window – Elliot Anderson, Lewis Hall, Morgan Rogers and, fourth on the list, Mateus Fernandes. Were debt repayments restricting their buying power? Was it simply because United felt the fees were too much for them?
In the case of Fernandes, United certainly felt Spurs overpaid for the midfielder from relegated West Ham - £85m for a player West Ham bought from Southampton a year earlier for £38m. But everyone knew the market was inflated and those were the fees being demanded – and commanded – for such young talent, especially in a World Cup summer.
Anderson went for £114m, Rogers for £115m. Hall (overlooked for World Cup) could probably have been got for £60m+ before he committed to Newcastle United. Anderson would have transformed United's midfield - certainly more than the £150m spent on Andrey Santos, Carlos Baleba and Youri Tielemans. Hall was the obvious choice to fill the problem position of left-back with Luke Shaw injured and 31.
There used to be a time when Manchester United would go for “best in class” players, even if that meant chunky fees. Not now. That has to change. Mauricio Pochettino will certainly expect Ratcliffe and Jason Wilcox to think bigger in the transfer market - more befitting of a club United's size. Carrick, understanding the challenge United faced in the summer, wanted United to buy properly. They didn't.
An indication of the way ahead will be whether Mauricio Pochettino's title is head coach or manager (and driving recruitment like Arteta, Emery). #MUFC
What did I tell you. The top reds have already started. Sitting in the bottom 3 winless in months was fine under the right face. As soon as the ex player is out the expectations are completely different! People like this are as much a problem as the Glazers. A cancer.
Sources close to the #mufc dressing room believe that Michael Carrick has been ‘hung out to dry’ as United dithered over his future and then began a futile attempt to appoint Mauricio Pochettino as his replacement in secret [@NathSalt1, @ChrisWheelerDM]
