39-year-old Amorim is pale! Manchester United regret hiring him? led the team to 15 games and 7 defeats, not even as good as Ten Hag

In a key match in the 22nd round of the English Premier League that ended in the early morning of January 20, Beijing time, Manchester United lost 1-3 at home to Brighton, and when the final whistle blew, the 39-year-old Manchester United coach Amorim was pale, sitting in the coach's box without saying a word, and it seemed that he had nothing to do about the current situation of Manchester United. I wonder if the Manchester United hierarchy will regret their decision to hire him at this moment.


In this game, Amorim stubbornly stuck to his back three formation (3-4-2-1). And the team's back line has once again exposed its problems. Although Manchester United once relied on Fernandes's penalty to equalize and once dominated the second half, in the end Manchester United still conceded two goals in a row due to a leak in defense and goalkeeper Onana's "butter hand" gift. In this way, Manchester United have been beaten at home by Brighton for the third consecutive season.


Since taking over at Manchester United, Amorim has played 15 games with a dismal record of five wins, three draws and seven defeats, including six defeats in the Premier League. Amorim has lost the most games of the three managers who have managed Manchester United this season. The team's record is not as good as Ten Hag's (4 wins, 6 draws, 4 defeats).Since he took charge, only Southampton, Leicester and Tottenham have lost more


Although Amorim led the team to play a beautiful league win away to Manchester City, a draw away to Liverpool and an FA Cup defeat of Arsenal with one man less, Amorim was unable to help Manchester United and get the points he deserved against other teams.


After the defeat to Brighton, Amorim also set a number of humiliating records for Manchester United. First of all, Manchester United have only 26 points in 22 Premier League games, the worst in the same period since the 1989-90 season; Second, United have lost six of their 12 home league games this season, the most at home in the league since 1893-94. Thirdly, Manchester United have lost 10 of their 22 league games this season, the most of any single season in the Premier League in the same period.


At present, Manchester United have been stretched seven points by Fulham, who are 10th in the table, and are deep in the bottom half of the table, becoming a veritable underdog. This is indeed a great shame for the former Premier League hegemon.
