Sky sports reporting Amorim won't join United before November 10th.

I was on a 30 minute delay but had to laugh. You just know Erik was somewhere here in the NL cursing those players. If they finished like that on Sunday, he'd still have a job.

That game felt a bit like last year when chaos ball happened to go well. Created a lot (with a lot of help from a crappy Leicester team to be sure) but also gave up a lot of chances. Fun times but Chelsea will attempt 30 shots if we try that against them.

@ Spurs in the League Cup quarters two days after @ City in the league. If Amorim does start in mid-November, he'll have about a month before that combo. Godspeed to you good sir. My guess is the media will already have their knives sharpened and ready at that point.

Tom Rennie from talksport was already taking jabs how Man United are declaring the season over by not getting Amorim in this week, and it taking 2 weeks. I mean come on.

I just hope that when we play Spurs, they don't trot out their secret weapon.

I feel like we still have a chance at top 5 if, and it's a big if, we can beat Chelsea this weekend. Spurs play Villa as well. Right now we are 6 points behind Chelsea, 5 behind Brighton, 2 points behind Spurs, and 1 point behind Newcastle. Also, Brighton plays Liverpool, and Newcastle plays Arsenal this weekend. There's still an opportunity, but we have to go from inept to competent immediately, and I don't know if that's possible even with a new manager bounce. And we need luck in other games to move back up fast (although Liverpool and Arsenal wins would be a strange definition of "luck" for United fans, really). Guess we will know more after the weekend. If, on the other hand, we lose and are 9 points behind Chelsea, that's a lot of points even with almost 3/4 of the season left.

Yep. The same publications that lambasted United for hiring EtH and every week continued to tell United to fire him are now reaming United for firing him. Calling out United incompetence sells well so they'll ensure it gets created in any scenario.

Btw, every couple of months a Talksport video will clickbait me into watching it on YouTube.

I literally always regret it. People say "literally" all the time when they actually don't mean it, but I think I actually mean it; I can't remember watching one and thinking, "Well, I may disagree, but I think there were good points made." It's almost always at a level below Skip Bayless, which is saying something.

Don't worry, I don't think I would ever copy a link and share my mistakes with you guys, lol.

So Amorim starts on the 11th and is bringing all his assistants with him (unless they say they don't want to come I guess). RvN wants to stay as assistant but unclear if Amorim will be enthused by that idea. My guess is he'll tell Ruud thanks but no thanks.
