"A lot of people have already given up on Amorim, he told Football Insider. That's the case amongst the fans, amongst neutrals, and I don't doubt it's the case with some of the staff as well because he isn't showing anything to prove them wrong. Even his press conferences don't inspire any belief or hope, he's as miserable after a win as he is after a defeat and there always seems to be an issue."
"On the pitch, he makes the same mistakes time after time, but insists on sticking to this style of play when it's been proven it doesn't work. You can blame the players, of course, but he was backed in the transfer market with plenty of money to sign players he wanted and there's still been no improvement. There's no way back for him at this stage, even if the board have decided to back him, because it's become clear things aren't going to change."
Manchester United suffered a 3-1 defeat to Brentford that intensified scrutiny of manager Ruben Amorim after he had won only nine of 33 league games. Owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe publicly backed the coach, but internal confidence has eroded among players, staff, and sections of the fanbase. Former chief scout Mick Brown argued that Amorim has no way back, citing uninspiring press conferences, repeated tactical errors, and adherence to a style that has not worked. Significant transfer spending produced no clear improvement. Brown warned that delaying a decision will only postpone inevitable change if winning form does not materialize immediately.
