So to sum up, winning is bad as it gives a false sense of optimism, losing will keep the players grounded a gives a good base to build from
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Also stopping Liverpool winning the title. We have a six pointer double header coming up against Arsenal and City. Lose and that's 6 points to the chasing pack of Liverpool. Win win for us. Apart from the lose part.

Would losing the next few games actually be a good thing in the long run? Should we hope we lose them for the benefit of the club? Also losing tonight gives Arsenal a chance of catching Liverpool. And losing to City would do the same.

Very true. ABL!

Its going to take a miracle for United to be playing in CL next season. Lets just be realistic.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I wouldn't call finishing 5th a miracle and that might be enough. We also could win the Europa League let's not forget.

I think finishing 1st is already gone obviously. 2nd to 3rd would probably take a miracle. Anything from 4th downwards is possible and totally depends on how he gets us playing. We have plenty of quality when it's utilized the correct way however when it isn't we look a shambles.

Mentally preparing you all for the punishment you will receive tonight at the Emirates

Hoping the VAR team bring their rulers tonight

Not to mention checking blatant fouls of Rasmus in the box.

I agree with most of the comments so far and all this is proving is how incredibly stupid and spineless INEOS were in the summer. This guy should have had been given a summer training camp, tour and £100-150m to spend on players that fit his system.

I know we can't change the past now but this is why I was so vocal about how crap that decision to keep ETH was. It was the most predictable sacking in the history of football.

Except they wanted Tuchel in the summer, not Amorim.

Which further backs up my point. I don't think they are any better at this than Woodward and Arnold. Hopefully they allow Berrada and Ashworth to handle things from now on.

"We are going to have difficult moments and we will be found out in some games. And I know that, because I'm knowing my players and I know football. So I understand the difference between the teams. We are in the point that we are putting simple things in the team, without training. And you feel it."

Did he just say these players are crap, inconsistent and that he has to teach them the basics of football again

No, he said they’re getting used to a new system, haven’t had time to train for this and their fitness levels aren’t great so will at some point get a few beatings

You are about as patient as a child on Christmas morning when they wake up.

You were warned about Jim when you went on your w@nkfest when the Glazers went with him.

For all the faults we have seen with Jim so far and there are a few, it is going to take his team at least three years to clear up the mess the previous regime left United in.

Well at least they know their limitations and have hired footballing people, something the Glazers and Woodward never did.

Indeed N2. Not everything they have done so far is a negative.

Though I obviously want United to win every game, we do have to remember that Arsenal are once again trying to Save Football this season. I'll grudgingly take a 3-1 win.

I've already accepted that LFC are going to win the league and I am, surprisingly, at peace with it. It's going to be overshadowed by our resurgence and City's punishment/non-punishment anyway and it won't last for them. They'd be lucky to end up a Wenger Arsenal at best.

If City were nine points clear I'd say it was basically over. I think any other team would hit a difficult patch, and I believe Liverpool probably will at some stage.

Again all they did was not bad. The transfer window was very well ran for once, for starters.

Yeah not everyone can have the easy ride Slot has had at Liverpool, so it will be interesting to see how short-sighted certain elements of the fanbase will be in the levels of support they give Amorim.

I don't their philosophy is to buy for the manager, but a style and ethos set by the club. And tbf that's borne out by what Amorim's getting out of them. It's promising.

Sadly Ten Hag couldn't manage that so he failed to meet their strategy with the players they've brought in.

So they did or didn't back him? I'm confused.
