MU fans erupt after the decision to dismiss Ruben Amorim

The decision to remove Ruben Amorim triggered intense controversy among Man Utd fans, dividing opinions between relief and disappointment, while raising concerns about the turmoil at Trafford.

Manchester United’s firing of coach Ruben Amorim immediately caused a fierce wave of debate within the “Red Devils” fanbase. After 14 chaotic months at Old Trafford, the departure of the Portuguese strategist not only closed a failed era but also exposed deep fractures between the coaching staff, club management, and the supporters themselves.

On social media, MU fans’ reactions clearly showed division. Some viewed Amorim as merely a scapegoat in a squad that has been troubled for years. “Unbelievable, is Amorim really the problem or just incredibly unlucky with this squad?” a fan questioned the true responsibility of the former Sporting Lisbon manager.

On the other hand, many fans expressed relief, considering the decision necessary. “This news is fantastic” a brief comment reflecting the prolonged frustration felt by many after the team’s poor results.

The sudden nature of the decision also surprised numerous supporters. “Honestly, I didn’t expect things to unfold this way” another opinion showing that even those who didn’t support Amorim were caught off guard by such a swift conclusion.

Notably, some fans still expressed regret and personal feelings toward the 39-year-old coach. “I will miss him. Oh my, this makes me want to cry. I truly believed in Amorim”an emotional statement showing that Amorim retained trust from a portion of fans despite on-field results.

In reality, the numbers did not favor Amorim. A win rate of only 38.71%, finishing 15th in last season’s Premier League, losing in the Europa League final and a streak of 15 consecutive away games without a clean sheet drained patience at Old Trafford. However, public criticisms of the board and demands for more power were the final straw.

Thus, Ruben Amorim’s exit is not only a matter of performance but also a reminder of the ongoing crisis cycle at Man Utd, where coaches come and go, yet the biggest question remains unanswered: who is truly the problem at Old Trafford?
