"High-profile managers David Moyes, Louis Van Gaal, Erik ten Hag, and Jose Mourinho came and went, but it is Amorim who takes the prize of the statistically worst manager, according to AceOdds. The Portuguese's 458,870.97 cost-per-point put him well ahead of any other manager on the list, as his 62 points won and zero trophies were huge underperformances for Manchester United."
"Despite being one of Manchester United's most successful managers since Fergie, Mourinho placed second, largely due to claiming a reported 35m in wages and almost 20m following his sacking, around twice as much as any other. Ten Hag and Solskjaer placed third and fourth respectively, despite both boasting a 54% win percentage and over 140 points earned. Amorim's win percentage was 38%, a figure matched almost exactly by Ralf Rangnick."
Ruben Amorim was sacked by Manchester United amid rising tensions with director of football Jason Wilcox. Darren Fletcher became caretaker manager, the 11th person in the dugout since Sir Alex Ferguson's 2013 retirement. Last season's 15th-place finish was the club's lowest league finish since promotion from the old Second Division in 1975. AceOdds calculated Amorim's cost-per-point at £458,870.97 based on 62 points and no trophies. Amorim's contract reportedly cost £10m to terminate in addition to a reported £10m hiring fee. Mourinho ranked second in cost largely due to high wages and a near-£20m sacking payout.
