Man United are close to ‘crisis’ after Ruben Amorim sack reveal

 

 

Manchester United are reportedly edging dangerously close to another managerial crisis following new revelations about Ruben Amorim’s uncertain future at Old Trafford. Despite public backing from part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, tension continues to rise behind the scenes as the Portuguese boss struggles to deliver consistency in both results and performances.

According to Football Insider, Ratcliffe has expressed his intention to give Amorim as long as three years to turn the team around, citing Mikel Arteta’s early struggles at Arsenal as an example of patience paying off. However, sources close to the club claim that patience among fans and board members is already wearing thin. The 2-0 victory over Sunderland may have briefly eased pressure, but the manner of recent performances has failed to convince supporters that United are on the right track.

Amorim’s side have suffered a mixed start to the season, losing as many league games as they have won while crashing out of the Carabao Cup at the hands of Grimsby Town. Insiders reveal that a string of poor results after the international break could force the club to reconsider its stance, with Ratcliffe potentially pressured into making a difficult decision sooner than expected.

Meanwhile, former United figures such as Gary Neville and Michael Owen have publicly criticised Amorim, accusing him of poor leadership and tactical rigidity. Reports suggest dressing-room morale has also dipped, with some players growing frustrated by his intense approach and negative tone in press conferences.

While Ratcliffe’s faith remains—for now—Amorim is said to be just one defeat away from reigniting a full-blown crisis at Old Trafford. Unless he sparks a rapid turnaround, his long-term vision may not survive Manchester United’s unforgiving expectations.
