Amorim thinks he can just keep blowing smoke up the clubs arse. He hasn't got a clue what hes doing in this league.

He can only keep licking fan arse for so long before they realise he doesn't know what else to do.

It reminds me of us with Souness and the Bellamy situation; Bellamy was a huge player for us and the perfect partner for Shearer, Souness fell out with him and made a statement that he's in charge by immediately getting rid of him. Bellamy went on to big things cos he was obviously a good player.

Likewise with Amorim and Rashford, Amorim's arrived and within a few months they're without one of their best players. Although if Amorim gets the boot they may get Rashford back.

Amorim is the type that thinks he can talk and smile his way through, but he clearly hasn't got a clue what he is doing.

Ten hag was doing much better

Not sure what he was trying to do today, but they were all over the place. Mainoo as main striker, wtf? Mainoo has 1 goal in 24 games this season.

If you think Hojlund and Zirkzee are **** (which they kinda are) and you wanna change things up, pick an actual striker, someone like Rashford maybe...

Let's just hope it continues... We need a couple more years to kick on again.

I think where we could improve is having an attacking plan b. We've seen a number of times that we can retreat into a 5-4-1, even a 5-5-0, but when we need to be more unpredictable and chase a goal we genuinely look all over the place. I've seen Howe sort of throw a player or two on into a completely unbalanced 4-4-2, but I think there needs to be a better plan - watching B'mth dismantle us, we clearly have the personnel to switch to a 4-2-4, which means taking off one of the CM's for a striker - something Howe is scared to do. For me, it's something that could be worked on far more than it appears to be. All Howe ever does is swap like for like, which given the crap on the bench just makes us weaker. He's too risk-averse.

If only man City hadn't got their goal and we'd have gone 4th via a defeat at home.

Now that's boxing clever.
