He'd have more to gain from claiming it didn't happen than the club claiming it did
Yes, but are you calling him a lair though?
He says we didn't interview him or make an offer.
We hear he went to West ham for direct talks. Do we know that actually happened?
After that we know lfc offered the job to one man and that one man confirmed it before the club did.
Players, managers, agents, clubs, etc lie all the time, they're protecting their interests. As I said above, Almorin as more reason to "lie" about it than the club. Make your own mind up...
We know the West Ham interview happened because he apologised to Sporting fans for doing it.
He has a lot of deadwood to get rid of, bearing in mind he has only been given a 2 year contract!
I liked the look of Amorim when we were linked with him, based on not very much really. It will be interesting to see what he brings to the league. His style was thought to be too rigid and too big a change from what was already working for us. He has a massive task at utd that involves much more than imposing a style of play.
Given the number of managers they've already gone through with minimal success, I'd suggest the problems lie elsewhere.
It was just my suspicion (based on the turnaround of managers) that the problem was elsewhere. I can't say where the problems lie, so I can't say whether or not the changes will address them. Though you'd think that if everything elsewhere was now sorted, then ten Hag could have fared better.
Who knows? It's all guesswork, but I wouldn't live in hope/fear (depending on your pov) of any radical improvements until I saw them.
I asked because I genuinely didn't know. I don't take much interest in them at all.
I think that's a sensible approach from Man Utd tbh, they've chucked big contracts at a few managers in recent years and had to pay big settlements to get rid.
Agree though, it's a massive job.
