Meanwhile, Bruno Fernandes is sad because the ref accientally bumped into him. Not like him to have a big cry about nothing.

Midfields a glaring problem and they sign 3
forwards. All while Rashford, Antony and Sancho haven’t been sold.

28 points in 29 games in charge.

Not to worry, Amorim just needs a couple more signings. Its unfair to expect him to improve players he didnt sign.

Another few number 10's should fix it?

They need to beat Burnley this weekend because after that its Chelsea and City who they should lose to and then international break and yeah its going to a nervy time for Ruben.

Haha I remember a few on here saying United had the perfect squad for Amorim when he first signed.

They cant really sack the guy now, they had their chance after the Europa final and they doubled down instead of making amends.

He could all make us look stupid because he’s young enough and a physical freak but you’d think theres a reason all the ‘smart’ teams walked away or turned their nose up at the price they wanted.
It's not a physical profile I find that exciting personally, maybe he has a bit more pace and power than it's looked like so far or in his Leipzig highlights. I'm already seeing us fall into the Lukaku trap of playing long balls to a striker who's tall, but actually not a remotely effective target man.

Not jumping to any conclusions but, to quote Logan Roy, I've got my ****ing suspicions.

The midfield is a big issue for MU.Fernandes is not at his best playing deeper.Casemiro and Ugarte haven't got the legs needed for the PL.Where does Mount fit into the formation?

Potter is doomed, you don’t come back from performances like these.
I said at the time of his appointment that he doesn't have the personality to be a good fit as WHU manager.He doesn't gel with the fans and is more of a fit at say Bournemouth.I have nothing against him but this is my take.

Im not a Mount fan despite Amorim and ETH falling for the allure of him. I finally see what he is though. He’s a 10. So again under yet another manager United have too many 10s. We can blame the managers but it keeps happening.

There was 10 mins or so 2nd half with Bruno and Mount as the CDM pair. Went how you would expect it would. Could have been worse. Maybe like ETH Amorim thinks he can have a midfield without a ball winner or holding player?

What’s the take on Amorim like ETH routinely swapping multiple CBs late in games? That’s 2 managers so it isn’t “in game management” it must be sports medicine related?

System heavily relies on specialist wingbacks to provide width and attacking threat. So not really. Dalot, Mazroui and an unfit Luke Shaw does not fit that.

Newcastle losing always amusing these days.

Really like Liverpool's kit this year. Very sharp. Reminds me of one of the ones they had during the Rafa years.

I think Amorin brings Maguire on as he sees him as a goal threat.I think Mount is a No 8.I've always thought he is a good player.Tuchel is a fan of his too.From what I've heard over the years managers like how quickly Mount understands new tactics.
