Thought Amorim would wait for Guardiola to leave for City.

Was reading something that the former City bloke who is now there CEO (?) might be wanting him for this reason. Especially with Sexy Hugo going to City.

[Keggy_Keagal]

Didn't Amorim do some sort of coaching apprenticeship under Mourinho at Manchester United ?

[Izakaya]

Reckon they'll try for Eddie if the compo they'd need to pay is less than Amorim's?

When England were looking at Howe the rumours was £5 million release clause, Man Utd won't move for Howe

No chance.

Howe and Ashworth don't get on do they?

Nee chance. 
 

Gutted if they get that Portuguese fella, purely based off how highly rated he is.

Possibly not but who really knows. I wouldn't be surprised if anyone got on with Ashworth to be honest, given as he seems like an absolute sniveling weasel cunt.

 

Amorim's release clause is apparently €10m. Considering Jim will have to stump up £17m for the remainder of Ten Hags contract, £5m compo for Eddie might seem a more attractive option.

No one should be knighted for sporting reasons imo.

 

It's as good, if not far better, than many of the other reasons for people being knighted.

[Big Geordie]

Man United will never sort itself out, until the Glazer's sell up.

 

Poisoned chalice.

[Joelinton7]

He’ll be chewed up and spat out, reputation in tatters within six months. That club is a graveyard for promising careers.

Amorim I reckon is already lined up to replace Pep, that’s why Viana is making the move.

 

Ornstein usually spot on but not 100% on these things.. I think they’ll approach and haggle and it will put him off. City are so much better run as a club, they just pay generally what the asking is and are decisive about it which is the most important bit.

Unless that's already been discussed, which I doubt as there's no guarantee Pep will go then I would be very surprised if he turned this move down.

I know nothing of Amorim but I hope it's not him. While their are systemic issues at Man Utd, I'm not sure they'll carry on being completely shit forever. A good manager can turn a club round. Chelsea for example seem to be back on track despite being a shitshow.

 

Feel like we've rode our luck with crap Man Utd managers and they'll get something that works eventually. 

 

Having said that, id pay good money to see the soon to be Sir Gareth Southgate stinking out Old Trafford. I fear they've got more sense than that though

Well, if it is Amorim, and he still fucks up, it will be even more funnier and hillarious. You can bring in any promising foreign coach, but the PL is something entirely different to what they would have experienced previously.

 

and if he does fail, guess who Gary Neville will still blame?

[Ben]

With all the Man Utd talk yesterday, Potter been sounded out for the Rangers job went under the radar.

His weekly 200k salary from Chelsea stopped this month so its probably about time he finds another job to support his family

[Pixelphish]

Daily Heil suggesting Amorin will be in charge by Sunday

 

[TBG]

To kill two birds with one stone, would you swap Howe & Mitchell for Ashworth?

They (ex players) have too much of a voice imo (long may it continue) - Don’t see G Neville piping up about what his mate has done to Valencia

Would make sense why he turned Rangers down a year ago. Be crazy to take that pay cut.

Add it to the exceptions lads.

[Ronson333]

Let’s see how good this guy is, much easier being top dog in the Portuguese league than the big prem. Remember AVB, similar age to this guy and was no where near. 

[r0cafella]

Really curious to see how this works out, the profile is remarkably similar to the last guy they just spent a fortune on and binned off.
