BRENTFORD SMASHES MANCHESTER UNITED
For the third time in four visits, Manchester United has lost to Brentford. The final score was 3 – 1.
This means manager Ruben Amorim has only won nine of his 33 games in the Premier League.
Before the match, Amorim described the game as Manchester United’s “most important in a long time”.
But, it turned out to be a much more important game for Brentwood as striker Igor Thiago managed to score two goals in the first 20 minutes. Manchester United’s Benjamin Sesko managed to score a goal, getting Manchester United’s hopes up.
It turned out to be the only goal scored by Amorim’s team, as the manager’s position setup isn’t working out.
Amorim was asked about the system at the most post-match interview, to which he replied: “It's always the same, when we win it's not the system, when we lose it's the system.”
Just recently, Sky Sports commentator and former Manchester United captain, Gary Neville, warned that if the club continues to play this way and finds themselves in the bottom half come October, it could be bad news for Amorim’s future.
“There's got to be a turnaround pretty quickly, and the manager's idea has got to land very quickly with the players,” Neville said at the time.
