Have to expect Man U will have a considerable upturn in performance. New manager bounce, dark cloud lifted. We all have experienced the same here previously and it can really help the confidence and momentum. 

Just need to hope this new guy is gonna be another Ten Hag rather than a Pep or Klopp level manager.

You hope this new guy is going to be another Ten Hag? What beating you in a cup final and costing you European football on the last day of the season?

Wouldn’t think so. Pressure is immense there. Even a couple of defeats, or things not looking better/different that EtH will have the media and some of their fans questioning if it was the right appointment. 
 

All of the talk surrounding EtH when he went there was about his “philosophy” etc. He was just as highly rated as Amorim. Ten Hag will probably go away now and be very  successful at a less deluded club without the shadows of Ruud and the red nosed dram deer hovering over him. Getting them to be feared as a serious threat again is what all of their fans want. It will be a lot more difficult than getting some wins against the likes of Estoril and Arouca.

You’re not seriously suggesting the Man U fans / club have given him a rough ride? They’ve actually been very restrained in their criticism by and large and let’s be honest, he’s spent far too much money for them to be consistently such a mess every week.

Their fans have been ridiculously patient with ETH.

I live in Manchester, so not their biggest fan but of the many sticks to beat their fanbase with, manager impatience definitely isn't one.

100%. I’ve barely heard anyone from here say anything negative about him personally.

It’s mainly the media and a smaller section of their fanbase whose reactionary opinions get amplified by said media. It’s bad with us but 10x worse with them having a rotating cast of ex-players being given a free mic to say what they want before and after every live match.

Again, it’s the smaller loud section of their fanbase whose OTT opinions are amplified by the media and the cabal of ex players they’ve got doing the circuit on tv/radio.


After every Man U defeat it’s “who’s to blame” on Super Sunday or whatever the show is. No one ever has any answers. The club is in total disarray. This next guy will get some wins, take some defeats but imo won’t be much of an improvement.
 

They’ll still be a streaky little team who because of their finger pointing and going round the houses, amateur ownership, directionless playing staff and a management not able to meet the impossible demands just being “Manchester United”, they’ll fall someway short of challenging for too honours on the regular and being seen as modern equals of City and Liverpool.

Not going to pretend that I know an awful lot about Amorim but it appears as if this is pretty much as good as they could have done tbh. He seems very highly rated, already successful and has many many good years ahead of him. Hope he/they crash and burn obviously but the law of averages say they'll get it right eventually, this bloke could be the one

Well West Ham rejected him as they were unsure about his suitability for the PL. And they haven’t got a great track record of foreign managers themselves so for them to back away does show a slight red flag

There's always going to be big questions posed over any young, inexperienced manager coming from the continent regardless of the club tbh. We'll soon see how he copes but there's plenty of talent in the squad and if he's bringing something different it might just click fairly quickly.

 

It could also unravel even more obviously but if I was a betting man I think he's more likely to get it right than sink without a trace

I don't really know anything about this guy, other than a brief look at his wiki page. I'm probably missing something, but he doesn't strike me as being skilled or experienced enough for a Prem club the size of Man Utd... still, if it all goes further to shit for them, who am I to argue [emoji38]
