Manchester United s path to redemption: This time, we really need to "swallow the medicine with tears"
4:02pm, 26 May 2025Football
In the summer of 2025, Manchester United fans are more shady than Manchester's weather. The qualifying for the Champions League has been settled, and the FA Cup finals have lost to Tottenham, and the sound of "Amorin's dismissal" on social media has been higher and higher. But wait! Does this plot look familiar?
Think about the past ten years, from Moyes to Van Gaal, from Mourinho to Ole Gunnar, and then to Tenhager... Manchester United's coaching seat seems to be cursed, and every coach is like a temporary worker, with the tragic feeling of "if you fail, you will succeed." What's the result? The team is spinning in the vicious cycle of "reconstruction-collapse-change coach", which is very similar to the football version of "Day of the Groundhog".
What's more ironic is that every time I change my coach, Manchester United will always be praised by the media for "new atmosphere", and then half a year later, the same group of people will be called "mess". This kind of "face-slapping cycle" makes even the screenwriter dare not write like this!
Speaking of "impatient", Manchester United has a bloody criminal record.
In 2018, Mourinho was determined to clean up Martial, but in order to "preserve his value", the senior management gave him a contract renewal of 250,000 yuan with a weekly salary. What's the result? The "factory manager" only scored 46 goals in five years, and finally left for free, leaving the fans with a sentence: "If I had known today, why should I have been there?"
Look at last year, Tenghagre rented Amrabat against the crowd. Morocco is carrying the glory of the World Cup semi-finals and is willing to play a guest role as a left-back or even a goalkeeper for the team. As a result, the management said at the end of the season, "When Tenghager is off, then decide his future" and directly stepped on his loyalty. Manchester United's biggest enemy is not Manchester City, but its own short-sightedness.
Now, Manchester United is standing at a crossroads again. The new coach Amorin took office for half a year and ranked 16th in the league. He lost to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League and lost the qualification for the Champions League.
Amorin's six-year coaching for Manchester United is a disaster-level performance. After taking over, he lost 8 games in the Premier League in 14 games, setting the worst start in 67 years. The standings fell to the relegation zone for a time, and finally barely relegated. The three-back system is not adaptable to the local conditions. Manchester United has no wingback support tactics, and has also lost 17 goals due to set-piece defense loopholes. Even the promoted team can play wildly in the Dream Theater. What's even more ironic is that after he took office, the offensive data declined across the board, Rashford was abandoned and loaned to Villa, and B Fee spread his hands more than assists. The Europa League final lost 0-1 to Tottenham completely exposed the chaos: no tactics and no fighting spirit, and even the fig leaf of "scientific support for the coach" was torn. Although Amorin emphasized that it takes time, the fans have already shouted: "This medicine is too bitter and cannot be swallowed!" Some people call Amorin "conservative tactics", but don't forget: Ferguson's first champion waited for seven years; Klopp's Liverpool won the Champions League in the fourth year. On the other hand, Manchester United has changed their coaches in the past ten years, and what is the result? There is only one Europa League and FA Cup in the trophy cabinet, so shabby that even Tottenham dares to laugh at us.
Fans always laugh at themselves as "the sky falls and there is a mouth pressing on them", but now it's time to shut up. Amorin is not Guardiola, but he has done at least two things: stabilize the locker room and activate young people.
Look at Arsenal next door, Arteta was also called out for get out of class, what about now? They are firmly ranked in the top three in the Premier League. What Manchester United needs is not the next "savior", but time - time allows youth training to grow, time allows tactics to take root, and time allows the team to regain the "Red Devils' soul".
