These things take time. Amorim has had weeks to radically overhaul our style—midseason, in the toughest league, with no new signings. The 6-day break before Liverpool will be the longest training period he’s had. His system works, but he needs time with the players to drill it.
Man Utd’s revenue growth, once the best in football, has become ordinary over the last decade, but costs have continued to rise. The result? A squeeze on spending. Fans blame the new owners for “penny pinching,” but the reality is the club’s finances can’t support a rapid overhaul.
A new stadium feels impossible with current interest rates. Transfer-wise, our most expensive players—Rashford, Casemiro, Bruno—are underperforming and hard to move. Sellable assets like Mainoo, Diallo, and Garnacho could bring in funds, but selling them would cause an uproar.
This rebuild will take time, likely over multiple windows. Financial constraints mean progress will be slow. The leadership MUST communicate this clearly to fans. Unless the ownership or debt structure changes, we’re stuck with this reality. Patience is essential.

Amorim is the right man. His conduct has been exemplary, and we’re already seeing improvements.
• Wolves was the low point.
• Possession and pressing are better.
• Attack is more patient.
• Open-play defending has improved.
But: set pieces and finishing still let us down.
2. The Financial Side
Man Utd are in a mess. Transfer debts are massive, and there’s no cash for big signings unless players are sold.
