Man Utd's Decade of Shame: Amorim Sacking Exposes Deeper Rot
- •Ruben Amorim's sacking marks the 9th manager change in 13 years, highlighting Manchester United's persistent decline.
- •Amorim's tenure saw the club's worst statistical spell, including a 32% win rate and a stubborn adherence to an unsuitable 3-4-3 system.
- •The article argues Amorim's failure was "baked in" due to being hired mid-season with a squad built for Erik ten Hag.
- •Boardroom mismanagement by Glazers and INEOS is blamed for treating the club as a balance sheet, leading to staff cuts and significant financial losses.
- •United is described as a "graveyard of managers," with the club struggling under the shadow of Sir Alex Ferguson's past glory.
