BREAKING NEWS: Amorim set to leave Manchester United if he lose the final. Amorim Under Fire: Man United’s Defensive Tactics Fail to Deliver in EPL Disaster Season

Manchester United’s dismal 2024-2025 Premier League campaign hit a new low this week, and fans are pointing the finger squarely at manager Ruben Amorim. Following yet another defeat—part of a staggering 16 losses in the league this season, as reported by Sky Sports—supporters have taken to social media to vent their frustration, with many calling for the Portuguese manager’s sacking.

A viral post on X by user Ronoh K Clinton (@RonohClinton) on May 16, 2025, encapsulated the growing discontent: “This Amorim’s system is so shit man, you can’t tell me these players can’t even win a single Premier League match, losing every week.” The post, accompanied by a photo of a dejected Amorim on the sidelines, sparked a heated discussion among United fans, with over a dozen replies echoing similar sentiments.

Since taking over on November 11, 2024, Amorim has struggled to translate his Europa League success into consistent Premier League results. While United have reached the Europa League final—a feat Amorim described as a chance to “owe the fans a trophy” in an ESPN interview on May 8, 2025—their domestic form has been nothing short of catastrophic. Sky Sports reported on May 5, 2025, that United’s 4-3 loss to Brentford marked their 16th league defeat of the season, the most in a single campaign in 35 years, consigning them to a bottom-half finish.

Fans on X have been particularly critical of Amorim’s tactical approach. User @theoutsid3r10 highlighted the team’s defensive frailties, noting, “When was the last time we kept a clean sheet since we play with 6 defenders on the pitch? It’s clear Amorim’s organization is poor.” Another fan, @DecidedlyStrong, criticized the manager’s overly defensive formations, pointing out, “Chelsea had 5 players in the box for their goal… but Man Utd rarely have more than one attacker in the box per time cos Amorim has them all defending in a 8-1-1 farce of a formation.”

Amorim’s tactics, which were analyzed by The Football Analyst in December 2024, emphasize compactness and a high defensive line to disrupt opponents’ build-up play. However, this approach has backfired in the Premier League, where United have failed to score in 10 of 25 league games under his management, according to Sky Sports. The team’s inability to balance defense and attack has left them vulnerable, with fans like @YxngZany lamenting, “Just defenders passing to each other and booting it forward.”

Despite the criticism, some supporters have defended Amorim, arguing that the squad’s lack of quality is the real issue. @Oluwatomisin091 wrote on X, “The day you realize that we have a low IQ players is when you’ll understand football… They didn’t feel bad for their loss at all.” Others,
