Overview
- United’s 3-1 loss at Brentford left them 14th in the Premier League, with Amorim on 34 points from 33 league games and 17 defeats.
- On Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Jamie Carragher called Amorim’s spell a disaster and urged both parties to “shake hands and move on,” saying a back-four setup could lift the team into European contention.
- Tactical choices drew broader criticism as Gary Neville objected to Mason Mount featuring at left wing-back and Rio Ferdinand advocated a return to 4-2-3-1.
- Manchester Evening News reported Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner would accept the job “in a heartbeat,” though the coach told Austrian media he remains relaxed about the rumors.
- Reports claim club figures say no successor is in place and past suggestions that Amorim offered to resign are unconfirmed, while the manager maintains he is comfortable and focused on his work.
